Kyle expands options to fund utility-assistance pilot: voluntary donations and bill rounding advanced

After a six‑month pilot that has helped about 42 households and spent roughly $21,000 of a $30,000 pool, staff proposed optional voluntary donations and an opt‑in 'round up' feature on utility bills to fund the Utility Customer Assistance Program (UCAP). Council signaled support and staff said IT changes are required to add the options to bills and the payment portal.
