You may pay your fine in person at the Chetek Police Building located at 101 Moore Street, during the hours of 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday – Friday.

If your driving privileges have been suspended for non payment of a fine, you must pay by money order or cash only. NO personal checks will be accepted on suspension releases.
It is your responsibility to notify the court of any change of address. Fines are due by the court date written on your citation, whether your appearance is mandatory or not.

 

Before your court date, you may:

  1. Pay your fine by cash, check or a money order.
  2. Request time to pay. This may be done in person or over the phone by setting up a payment plan with the court clerk.
  3. If your appearance is mandatory you must appear at the date and time on your citation.
  4. Call the court clerk with any question pertaining to your citation(s).

 

Worthless Checks

Appearances for issuing worthless checks are mandatory. Paying the restitution for the worthless check, and any fees incurred by the victim, BEFORE your court appearance, provides the possibility of a reduction of the fine to just $50.00 for First Offense violations only.

Restitution must be paid at the Chetek Police Department by cash or money order.

If you fail to pay your fine by the date due, or fail to comply with any Court Order, the Court may take any or all of the following actions:

  1. Suspend your driving privileges for up to one year.
  2. Turn your unpaid amount over to the state collection agency.
