Our phone number is 330-678-8104 and we are open Monday through Thursday, 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.. During a week with a holiday, hours are Monday through Friday, 7:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., except for the holiday.

Direct Debit

If you would like to pay your water bill through Automatic Draft, an authorization form is found in every issue of the Tree City Bulletin and also listed below in PDF format.
