Each Web option allows multiple tickets to be paid within the application using the "Add Another Bill" feature. However, tickets within separate applications (such as Real Estate and Personal Property) can also be combined and paid at one time. |
Why Is My E-mail Address Needed? |
|
Your e-mail address is a unique identifier used to combine all your tickets marked for payment into one lump sum. |

Is My E-mail Address Retained? |
|
No, your e-mail address is not stored by the municipality, merchants, or any other party. The file containing e-mail information is erased after two hours have elapsed from the time the e-mail address was entered. The e-mail address is stored in a "cookie" on your personal computer for a two hour time period. This enables your e-mail address to be entered automatically for payment applications accessed during the two hour window, without having to enter e-mail information again. |

How Do I Make Multiple Payments? |
|
When the Checkout screen is reached, click on another application (using links on the left side). Proceed normally. The Summary screen now shows tickets from both applications and a Total Amount Due. You can add as many tickets from as many options as desired using this method, and then pay everything at once. Applications use the e-mail address entered earlier to lump tickets together. |
