UTILTIY ASSISTANCE PILOT PROGRAM

During the October 6, 2025 Council Meeting, the Astoria City Council approved a utility assistance pilot program that will take place over the next six months starting on October 2025 - March 31, 2026. Eligibility for this program is set for 30% area median income for Clatsop County, and assistance will be based on household size with the assistance being provided being approximately 10% of average consumption for that household size. The total budgeted amount available for disbursement will be $25,000. Program funding is fixed and limited to the amount available. Once funds are exhausted, no additional resources will be allocated, and assistance will no longer be available. Pilot Program Outline.
