City of Morrison Utility Billing Delayed in July
On July 7, 2026, the City of Morrison will be transitioning to a new computer software platform with BS&A Software to support utility billing, payments, and customer information.
Due to this upcoming transition, utility billing for July 1 will be delayed.
Utility bills are generally mailed/emailed on the last business day of the month with account balances due on or before the fifteenth (15th) of each month. During this transition, the July billing will not be mailed/emailed until no earlier than July 10, 2026.
Understanding that the delayed billing will be short notice for the due date of July 15th, the City of Morrison asks that account balances be paid as soon as possible once the billing is received. As a result of this transition and inconvenience, there will be no late fees or other penalties during the July billing and payment period.
Additional details and online account access information for the new software platform; BS&A Software, will be shared very soon!
If you have any questions, please visit City Hall at 200 West Main Street, Morrison or by calling 815-772-7657.
The City of Morrison appreciates the community’s tolerance, patience, and support during this transition.

UPDATE - The draining of the water tower will begin Tuesday, May 5th!
The City of Morrison announces that its municipal water tower will be temporarily taken out of service beginning May 1, 2026, to allow for scheduled interior tank maintenance. This work is part of the City’s ongoing commitment to maintaining a safe, reliable, and high-quality water system for residents and businesses. The anticipated maintenance period is 4 to 6 weeks.
During the maintenance period, the water system will continue to operate using alternative infrastructure; large-scale hydro-pneumatic pressure tanks. Residents and businesses may experience minor fluctuations in water pressure at times, but no major service interruptions are anticipated.
As a precaution, residents and businesses may notice temporary changes in water clarity, discoloration and odor. If this occurs, residents and businesses are asked to run cold water only (not hot water) for a few minutes until it clears. The water will remain safe for normal use throughout the maintenance period.
The City appreciates the community’s patience and understanding as this important work is completed. Updates will be provided if there are any significant changes to the project timeline or service conditions.
For additional information, please contact City Hall by calling (815) 772-7657, visiting 200 West Main Street or online at the City’s official website; www.morrisonil.org
