Klamath Falls, Oregon – With the introduction of the 2025 older Citizen Utility Credit, Klamath Falls is once again poised to keep supporting older citizens. With a $65.00 credit on utility bills for qualified elderly residents, this program seeks to give the older population financial relief.
Applications for the utility credit have specific income and age criteria to meet. Single applicants are required to have an annual gross income of no more than $28,350, while the threshold for couples is set at $32,400. Every applicant also has to be a minimum of 60 years old. Processing the application calls for proof of both age and income.

The utility credit is intended specifically for accounts registered under Klamath Falls’ city borders and must be under the applicant’s name. The service location should be the main residence of the applicant; the account should have been active from January 1, 2024, until December 31, 2024.
Starting February 18, 2025, interested elderly people can get application forms and apply. Two sites in the city—the Senior Citizens Center at 2045 Arthur Street and the Utility Billing Department at 222 S. 6th Street—will have these forms on hand. The deadline for submitting applications is April 15, 2025.
By April 22, 2025, successful candidates will have the $65.00 credit added to their utility accounts. This initiative highlights the City of Klamath Falls’ dedication to helping its older citizens so they may have access to required services without excessive financial load.
Seniors should get in touch with the City Utility Department at 541-883-5301 for any information or concerns about the application process. This project is only one of the several ways Klamath Falls is striving to improve the quality of life for its citizens through focused help to those most in need.
