FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Checks for Utility Bills to be Processed by U.S. Bank
Edina, Minn., Oct. 19, 2017 – Residents will soon notice a new return address on the remittance stub of
their utility bills. Beginning Nov. 10, the City of Edina will use U.S. Bank’s payment processing service to
process checks for utility billing. The remittance stubs used to submit payments in the reply envelope will
show the following address:
City of Edina
PO Box 860586
Minneapolis, MN 55486-0586
The Finance Department estimates that utilizing U.S. Bank’s payment processing service will save staff roughly
25 hours each month.
“The time saved will allow Finance staff more time to provide better customer service to our 15,500
customers,” said Accountant Sharae Sledge, who estimates that the Finance Department processes about
1,600 checks each month. “The change will really streamline the process, too.”
The decision to use U.S. Bank’s payment processing service comes on the heels of the department moving to
InvoiceCloud, a new online payment service. In addition to making payments online at
EdinaMN.gov/UtilityBilling, residents can also make payments over the phone by calling 844-476-3107.
Checks should be made payable to City of Edina. Residents are also still able to drop off their payments in the
drop-box in the entry way of Edina City Hall, 4801 W. 50th St.
