WILLIAMSBURG, VA – The City of Williamsburg has extended their water and sewer relief program, and applications are open until Dec. 1, 2021.

The Municipal Utility Relief Program assists residents and small-business owners facing hardships due to the pandemic. It helps those with past-due water and sewer bills over 30 days in arrears between March 1, 2020 and Dec. 31, 2021.

Funds can only be allocated for past-due water and sewer bills.

The grant prioritizes assistance to customers with accounts more than 60 days in arrears, awarded only once per household (for residential) or once per account holder and their successors (for nonresidential).

All utility customers with accounts over 30 days in arrears are encouraged to complete an intake certification form, which can be found online or in the entryway of the Municipal Building at 401 Lafayette St. Signed certification forms can be mailed to 401 Lafayette St., Williamsburg, VA 23185 or emailed to water@williamsburgva.gov, or placed in the drop-box on the front of the Municipal Building.
