ComEd’s Residential Special Hardship Grant

ComEd has dedicated $10 million in assistance funds in 2014 to help customers facing financial hardship pay their electric bill. Through April 1, 2014 ComEd has adjusted the eligibility requirements for financial assistance programs for eligible residents including seniors, veterans and activated members of the armed services. In addition, the company is now offering flexible budget billing and flexible deferred payment agreement options to assist customers receiving higher than normal bills in light of the severe cold weather blanketing northern Illinois.



To apply for ComEd’s Residential Special Hardship Grant or the State sponsored assistance programs, such as LIHEAP, customers should visit a local LIHEAP Agency. For more information on any of ComEd’s assistance programs or to enroll in ComEd’s bill-payment assistance programs, call 1-888-806-CARE (2273) or visit ComEd.Com/CARE for more information.

EMERGENCY WATER SHORTAGE

The city's supply of water is low as the main feeding the treatment plant is frozen. Emergency repairs are underway today but residents are being asked to limit usage until the new line is installed. All car washes and laundromats in town are being asked to close. Delay laundry and dish washing usage until Sunday. As for flushing, may want to let yellow stay mellow and brown hang around before going down.
