*** Important message to our current ACH users ***
If you have already enrolled in the ACH (Automatic Bank Draft) program for your Refuse Totes or for your Water/Sewer Bill and wish to pay by credit card instead, please call the Department of Public Works at (315) 785-7770 for the Refuse Totes or the Water and Sewer Department at (315)785-7757 for Water/Sewer bills to opt out of the ACH program to avoid duplicate payments.
