Rep. Fritts Hosts Utility Bill Clinic

SHARE NOW

State Representative Brad Fritts (R-Dixon) is teaming up with the Citizens Utility Board (CUB) to host a Utility Bill Clinic on Wednesday, October 15th, from 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM. This informative event will provide constituents with suggestions for reducing their utility bills. The clinic will be hosted at the Sterling Public Library, located at 102 W. 3rd Street in Sterling.

“Our upcoming Utility Bill Clinic is an excellent resource for residents who want recommendations on ways to lower their utility bills,” said Rep. Fritts. “We’ve all felt the burden of ever-increasing energy bills here in Illinois. This clinic is a great way to help offset those additional costs for constituents.”

Event participants will speak one-on-one with CUB counselors to receive a personalized analysis of their utility bills. They will also receive information on:
Solar and electrification programs that can lower utility bills. Rebates and strategies for reducing energy costs through energy efficiency programs. Spotting unnecessary charges on gas and electric bills. Income-qualified financial assistance programs.

Appointments are preferred and can be made by clicking here or by calling Rep. Fritts’ office at 815-561-3690 EXT. 2.
