Are you a City of Marysville utilities customer facing financial difficulty related to COVID-19? We invite you to apply for a utility assistance grant for a one-time bill credit of $200 (or $100 for those who already have a discounted utility rate).

The City Council on Jan. 4 approved allotting an additional $25,000 in CARES funds for city utility assistance grants. Grants, unlike loans, do not need to be repaid. The grant application is available at https://www.marysvillewa.gov/340/Utility-Billing. 

We encourage eligible customers to apply soon because funds are limited. Grants will first be awarded to eligible applicants who have not already received a Marysville CARES utility assistance grant. Those who were previously awarded a grant may still apply and will be put on a wait list; if funding is still available, those grants will be awarded in the order that applications were received. 

If you have questions, please contact Utility Billing at 360-363-8001 or utilitybilling@marysvillewa.gov. 

CARES stands for the federal Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act.
