Applicants will be able to screen for eligibility by calling the debt forgiveness hotline at 419-314-3402 or creating an account on the online portal. You will need to answer these 5 screening questions:
- Home owner or tenant?
- How many people live in your household?
- Are you 65 years or older?
- Are you permanently disabled?
- What is your total annual household income?
Enrollment Complete
The city will complete your enrollment by verifying the total amount eligible for debt forgiveness. You may need to schedule an actual meter read. Eligible charges include:
- water charges prior to Oct. 1
- storm water charges prior to Oct. 1
- sewer charges prior to Oct. 1
Any outstanding balances from after Oct. 1 or from trash charges will be eligible for an installment payment plan, not for debt forgiveness.
