Official Website of the City of Denton

The City of Denton is going for "24-7 government," according to a recent article in the Denton Record Chronicle. You can now pay Municipal Court citations online using a credit card. Plans for future additions include the ability to pay for recreational programs, taxes, and library fees online. The ability to make utility payments online, get utility accounts information and request utility service connections and disconnections may be added soon also.

Besides the services, current and planned, mentioned above, the site is home to all sorts of useful information for city residents. Information such as:

• The latest updates to budget information, including a detailed report from the City Manager.

• The latest updates to tax information including links and information concerning county taxes, delinquent taxes and exemptions.

• The Annexation Plan.

• The stats on the quality of our water and the number of tests performed to ensure its quality!

• Your test scores, if you've applied for a civil service position with the city's human resources department.
