With gas prices at record highs, even short trips in small towns can bring second thoughts. But Cottonwood Falls has a new way to save a drive. “It is an option that will allow people to pay from home, without having to have a check or cash and coming into the office,” City Clerk Bree Larkin said. The city added online utility bill paying to the city website in early June. Larkin said it will be available for July consolidated payments of water, sewage and trash. “We’ve had quite a few people ask for it,” Larkin noted. “We want people to have the option to pay in multiple ways that work for the best for them.”
