Sherwood Announces New Relief Program on Utility Bills for Those Financially Impacted By COVID-19

The City of Sherwood Utility Billing Department has created a new assistance program to help those affected directly by COVID-19. The program is only available for residential accounts. In order to apply, residents will need to complete a COVID-19 assistance application which is available on the City website. The application asks residents a few questions to demonstrate they have been financially impacted by COVID-19. Qualifying residents will receive a one-time credit of $58.99 on their bill.
“City staff continue to develop new programs to help our residents weather this unprecedented economic storm,” stated Joseph Gall, City Manager. “I hope this new relief program can help those utility customers that are directly impacted by this emergency.”
If customers do not have internet access, they may directly contact the Utility Billing Department at 503.925.2315 to be mailed a form, or to receive other assistance with their application.
