Establishing an Emergency Utility Assistance Program
Details: An Emergency Utility Assistance Program for the City would utilize the proposed service agreement with the Treasure House to validate assistance requests from low income utility bill customers. The City would eliminate the use of collection agencies and "promises" for collecting overdue bills and begin liening property as provided by the Revised Code of Washington (RCW) and Camas Municipal Code (CMC).
