In order to receive payment for goods or services, the vendor is required to submit to the Disbursement Division an original invoice. Invoices should not be sent to the using department as this may cause a delay in payment. Departments must also sign off on the delivery or service and send their report to Disbursements. Checks are cut once a week, with a noon, Wednesday deadline. Checks for that week are then sent that Friday.
Payment is deemed made by the date on the check.
Local vendors are encouraged to obtain employee identification for purchases being made on behalf of the City of Reno. All employees are issued identification cards. Again, the City of Reno is tax exempt.
