Payment Methods The Village of Riverside has several methods of payment available. The cashier’s window at the Village Office accepts checks, cash, Discover, VISA or MasterCard. Payment via check can also be mailed via US Mail or in the silver drop box outside of the Township Hall. If you prefer, payments to the Village for utility bills, traffic tickets, vehicle sticker renewals, parking permit renewals and parks & recreation can be made on the website through the Pay tab at the top of the home page. Payment for utility bills may also be automatically deducted from your checking account on the due date of the bill. Forms for the automatic payment can be found at the front desk of the Village Office or on the website, www.riverside.il.us in the Form Center (bottom of home page) under the Finance section. Snow Removal Snow removal is conducted by the Public Works Department. Main streets are given priority with the side streets and Central Business District sidewalks to follow. Residents are not permitted to remove snow from their driveways into the street. Doing so makes it difficult for Public Works crews to keep streets clear for emergency vehicles and other motorists. Solicitors Solicitors must receive a permit before soliciting and are allowed to solicit only during the hours of 9:00AM and 5:00PM. If you do not want solicitors to come to the door, post a sign near the door stating “No Solicitors Invited”. Signs are available at the Village Office free of charge. If a solicitor stops at a posted home, you may then call the Police Department. Do not allow any solicitor into your home 30
