Title: Service Agreement between the City of Camas and Treasure House Details: The intent of the Service Agreement is for the City of Camas to refer customers who could potentially benefit from low income assistance to the Treasure House. The Treasure House would screen the customer to determine if the customer fits within the 125% of poverty threshold and to determine the level of assistance. The City would fund the Low Income Utility Assistance Program as part of the City's budget process and remit the funds to the Treasure House quarterly. The Treasure House could in turn provide one-time assistance or budget billing. The Service Agreement also provides the ability for others to contribute to the program to potentially assist others in need. Presenter: Cathy Huber Nickerson, Finance Director
