Important Announcement for Mechanicsburg Residents

Please know that the Village of Mechanicsburg is providing full services to the Village.  We are working staggered shifts to ensure that our employees and their families remain safe.  The office is closed to the public and will have minimal hours to ensure that all business is taken care of on a regular basis.  If you need assistance, please call (937) 834-3187 and leave a message for the department that is appropriate for your need.   

The Village of Mechanicsburg is suspending disconnection of utility services, late fees and penalties for non-payment from March 23rd through April 25th. The temporary suspension should not be considered a reason to not pay your utility bill. Customers may use the night deposit box to pay utility bills. We have provided envelopes for your convenience.  After April 25th, delinquent utility accounts will be reviewed and the need for service disconnections will be determined by the office on a case by case basis to ensure that delinquent balances do not become so excessive that they cannot be brought current within a reasonable time. To initiate new service, the application can be found on the website here. Please drop application off along with copy of your driver’s license, $100 deposit and all necessary signatures and we will schedule your water to be turned on.   

Police, Fire and EMS services remain fully staffed at this time.  Please call 911 for any emergency as usual.  All other non-emergency calls may be made to (937) 834-3187 and appropriate extension.  Right now, we are supplied with PPE equipment but that could change at any time.  Please be kind to all our First Responders.   

Our Water/Wastewater and Street Maintenance department employees are continuing to work on limited schedules and are on call 24/7.
