Residents served by Joshua Basin Water District at risk of falling behind on their water bills or having their water shut off can apply for relief at an upcoming one-day relief program.
Residents in the Joshua Basin Water District can apply for federal aid at the district office at 61750 Chollita Road in Joshua Tree. The one-day intake program is on Tuesday, March 12. Volunteers from the Community Action Partnership of San Bernardino County will be onsite from 10 a.m. to 12 noon and from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. to help residents determine if they qualify and complete the applications. Coffee and donuts will also be served.
Applicants must bring a current water bill, a government-issued ID, and documentation of income for the last four weeks. Ratepayers may use the Low-Income Federal Water Assistance Program only once, so if you received aid in the past you will not qualify.
