City Hall is now open for over-the-counter payments; As we move forward in the current situation, we strongly encourage customers to use one of our alternative payment methods:

• Drop box – Located in the Police Department parking lot, customers can use a personal check, cashier’s check, or money order (made out to City of Banning) to make payment. Please ensure either form of payment lists the account holder’s name and/or address. 
• By mail – mail to City of Banning, PO Box 985, Banning, CA 92220. Customers can use a personal check, cashier’s check, or money order (made out to City of Banning) to make payment.  

Using these alternative payment methods will help minimize the exposure and potential spread ofCOVID19.
