City Launches Utility Assistance Donation Program
Lawrence opens a new Utility Assistance Program funded by community donations to aid residents behind on bills. The plan, approved by the City Commission, will add donations to monthly bills via lawrences.org and be administered with Catholic Charities. About 10 percent of residents owe over 22 days, totaling over 1.7 million dollars, and a sustained $8 monthly gift for a year could cover the current shortfall.
