Finance Department

Accounts Receivable

All invoices are due upon receipt. After 60 days, all unpaid invoice balances are subject to a finance charge of 1.25% per month (15% per year). To avoid additional finance charges, please submit your payment by the 25th day of the month.

All non-assessable invoices (commercial accounts) will be submitted to a collection agency 90 days past the invoice date.

City residents who have been invoiced for services to your property (i.e., false alarm, weed mowing, property clean up, demolition, code enforcement inspection, overtime service calls) are asked to pay their invoice immediately. If an invoice is not paid within six months it will be placed on a special assessments roll, resulting in a lien against the property.

Payment for invoices can be made by mail or in person at the City Clerk’s Office, located at 161 W. Michigan Avenue, Jackson, MI 49201. The office is open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday. Checks should be made out to the Jackson City Clerk.

If you have a question regarding an invoice you have received, feel free to contact Sue Burt by e-mail at sburt@cityofjackson.org. Please be sure to include the invoice number in question as well as a phone number if you prefer to be reached by phone.
