Need help paying your bill? Residential customers whose electric or water accounts are past-due may request assistance from the Payment Assistance Fund once per 12-month period (Oct. 1 – Sept. 30). Contact one of the agencies below to apply for assistance.

An intake worker will interview you and contact Utilities for information about your account. You must make 80% or less of the Area Median Income. If you qualify and money is available, you'll receive assistance that can be credited to your electric and water charges.
