Public Notice Open For Comment
This is a Public Notice for Comment on the Grand Ronde Tribe’s
application for 2016 Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program
(LIHEAP) funding.
The Grand Ronde Tribe obtained a LIHEAP grant last year from
the Division of Energy Assistance within the U.S. Department of
Health and Human Services.
This grant program assists income-eligible Tribal members with
energy assistance (utility bills, firewood, etc.), crisis energy assis-
tance and weatherization (e.g. furnace repair, caulking, insulation).
The Tribe’s LIHEAP service area includes Polk, Yamhill, Marion,
Multnomah, Washington, Tillamook and Clackamas counties.
If you are interested in obtaining services from the current pro-
gram, please contact Social Services at 800-242-8196 for energy
assistance and Tribal Housing at 503-879-2405 for weatherization.
The Tribe is taking public comment on the 2016 LIHEAP applica-
tion and plan, which are to be submitted by Sept. 1, 2015.
The latest draft will be available for review at the Planning &
Grants Development Department at the Adult Education Building
starting Aug. 14, 2015.
It also will be available at Tribal Housing’s booth at the Powwow
starting Aug. 14, 2015.
You also may call the Planning & Grants Development Department
at 503-879-2250 with your comments on the plan or to obtain more
information about the plan. n

sidewalk chalk contest at the Education Department parking lot on
the Tribal campus on Tuesday, Aug. 11. Each contestant was given one

Tribe's Recreation Department and the theme was “Into the Jungle.”
