Building Permits Office

A construction project within Las Cruces City Hall will force the temporarily relocation of utility payment cashiers to the Building Permits office of City Hall.

During the past 60 days, the cashiers have been located at the Information Desk in the Lobby of City Hall. On Friday, August 23, 2024, they will once again be relocated.

Cashiers will be housed at the Permitting Counter in the Community Development area. This area is clearly marked by the “Building Registration” and “Building Permits” signage above the Community Development door.

The construction project is ongoing and may continue for several more months.

Utility payment cashiers will maintain in-person hours of 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday, excluding federal holidays at City Hall, 700 N. Main St.

The City of Las Cruces encourages customers to consider alternative options for paying monthly bills:

  • After Hours: Deposit payments in the drop-box located between City Hall and Thomas Branigan Memorial Library.
  • Pay-by-Phone: Available 24-hours a day. Call (575) 541-2111 and press 4. E-check, Visa, MasterCard and Discover Cards are accepted.
  • Pay Online: Visit UtilityHawk to make a payment or set up an auto-draft for your utility bill.
  • Walmart: Pay with cash at any Las Cruces Walmart store. There is a $1 service fee.
  • One-time Payment: Visit PaymentUS to make a one-time payment online.
