Automatic Bank Draft

The Automatic Bank Draft program saves you time and money by doing the work of paying your monthly utility bill on time for you. It's also free and you can elect to discontinue the program at any time.

Once you enroll, your bank or savings account is drafted for the amount of your monthly utility bill. You will continue to receive your bill each month, and the date the funds will be withdrawn is noted on the bill.
