Utility Assistance Help for Newark Residents Runs Monday and Wednesday, 10 A.M. to 2 P.M.

Utility assistance sessions for Newark residents are planned on Monday, Nov. 2, and Wednesday, Nov. 4, both from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., according to the Jersey Bee's Essex County Daily Buzz, read in full by this desk. Monday's session is at Good Neighbor Baptist Church, and Wednesday's is at the Vincent Lombardi Community Center.

Community organizations and utility assistance providers will be at the sessions sharing information about relevant programs, the listing said, and a list of required documents is available online. Residents planning to apply for help with utility bills are the sessions' audience, and bringing the documents a program requires is the step the listing points residents to check before they go.

The sessions fall in the same week the city's heat-season rules are in effect — Newark landlords must maintain indoor temperatures of at least 68 degrees between 6 a.m. and 11 p.m. and 65 degrees overnight from Oct. 1 through May 1 under the municipal code, as the city reminded residents in October — and in the first week of November, as households head into the colder months. This desk reports the times and places exactly as listed and does not add eligibility rules the listing did not state.
