City of Atlanta Introduces Water/Sewer Bill Payment Kiosks
Mayor Shirley Franklin Pays First Bill For TV Cameras

Atlanta, GA - July 20, 2006 - The City of Atlanta recently unveiled the first of a series of self-service bill payment kiosks that provide city residents with a convenient way to pay their monthly water and sewer bills. City of Atlanta Mayor Shirley Franklin helped launch the new bill payment kiosks at a televised press event that showcased the kiosks' ease of use.

The City of Atlanta Watershed Department, which already accepts online bill payments, selected Self-Service Networks' Walk-in Bill Payment kiosk solution to handle the demand for in-person check and credit card payments, eliminating the need for Watershed Department employee involvement. In addition to delivering cost savings and allowing employees to focus on other tasks, the kiosks expand residents' payment options.

As the Watershed Department's Melinda Langston explains, "These bill payment kiosks underscore our commitment to better serving the needs of city residents. Paying your water or sewer bill has never been so quick and easy."

The new kiosks represent just one facet of a city-wide initiative to bring self-service payment and information options to Atlanta residents and visitors alike.
