Knox City Council Approves Policy for Electronic Bill Payments

The City of Knox will be paying more of its bills online. The city council last week passed a resolution authorizing Clerk-Treasurer Cyndi Mann-Kidder to make certain payments through Automatic Clearing House transactions and Electronic Funds Transfers.

“What is happening is some of our vendors are no longer going to accept written checks,” Mann-Kidder explained. “They’re no longer sending us bills. It’ll all be electronic.”

She said the city will have to cover the cost of using an ACH, but she said it should be minimal.
