Good news for Cleveland residents

As families across Cleveland feel the mounting pressure from the ongoing federal government shutdown and the recent cuts to SNAP benefits, Mayor Bibb, in partnership with the Department of Public Utilities, today announced a 30-day moratorium on utility disconnections for nonpayment.

Effective Friday, November 7, 2025, customers of Cleveland Water and Cleveland Public Power will not face service interruptions due to unpaid bills during this period. Account balances will continue to accrue, but the City is taking this step to ensure residents maintain access to essential services during a period of heightened financial insecurity.
