the phone.

You can pay your bills anytime, anywhere. All you need is a phone.

How does it work?

Dial the toll-free number 866-399-8703 and provide your account number to locate your bill.

The IVR system will tell you your account balance, the payment due date, and then guide you to make
your payment using a credit card, debit card, or eCheck.

You are provided with a confirmation number and notified whether the transaction was successful or
not.

At the end of the call, you have the option to set up Auto Pay.

Additionally, you may call the payment center
(800-720-6847) and make payments over the phone with a live operator.

Both the IVR system and our payment center offer service in English and Spanish. (Note: Payment
center Spanish service hours vary.)

Did you know the Molalla Current has a page dedicated to the City's water system with tons of useful information, updates, documents, and links?

After the city went into level 1 water curtailment 2 summers ago, many community members were concerned about the resiliency of the water system and the plans in place to grow and fortify it. In response, City Staff created a Molalla Current page to keep folks 'in the know' and answer any water system related questions they may have.

The page boasts several governing documents for the water system, as well as a "Water System Projects" tab and a "Questions" tab. If you have questions or concerns about Molalla's Water System, navigate to the Water System project page on the Molalla Current or just click on the image below to learn more about the system and how it is being managed!

After months of delay Molalla took delivery of a new street sweeper. The old sweeper is a 2006 model, and has been in service for 17 years. The new sweeper has a number of technological improvements over the old including fuel efficiency, more durable design, safety features such as backing-up cameras, an automatic greasing system, and simplified electrical components. All these features contribute to an excellent machine that will serve the community for years to come.

There is a new page on the Molalla Current featuring an interactive map of all Public Projects in the City of Molalla! Each project is indicated by a white ‘flag’ that when you click on it will provide project information. There is also a place to ask project related questions and more to come as the page matures. The new map can be accessed through the Molalla Current (current.cityofmolalla.com/all-open-projects), by clicking on the Public Improvement Projects Map page. Please check out the new map and help us spread the word!
