The city of Watertown has started accepting online bill payments for city and Jefferson County property taxes, delinquent school taxes, water/sewer bills, refuse tote bills and sewer permit bills. Customers making payments with credit or debit cards will be charged a convenience fee of 2.85 percent of the transaction amount plus 28 cents per transaction.

They may also choose to pay with an e-check for a convenience fee of $2.50 per transaction. Customers may also be notified by email the next time a bill is produced.

To pay online, go to http://www.watertown-ny.gov/.

The city offers a free ACH Debit Payment Plan for water/sewer bills and refuse tote bills. It allows the city to electronically deduct the bill’s amount from a customer’s checking or savings account on the due date.

For further information or questions, contact the city comptroller’s office at 785-7754.
