Next year, residents of Stark County, Ohio, will be able to pay property taxes, court fines and fees at bill-payment kiosks, according to a reportby IndeOnline. The county plans to install the kiosks in the walls at drive-through locations, much like an ATM.

Currently, Stark County Treasurer Alex Zumbar is working with the County Clerk of Court Louis Giavasis to pay for three kiosks. The plan is to install one at the clerk's title offices in Alliance, Massillon and North Canton, Ohio.

Customers can either use a touchscreen to look up their account or simply scan their bill. They can then pay their bills with a credit or debit card. Giavasis believes these kiosks will make paying fines more efficient since it is available 24/7.

County officials also have discussed setting up more offices to create a central payment center.
