The City of Newberg wants to help our local business community during these challenging times and we need your help. 

During the Newberg Support Local Challenge the City of Newberg is offering utility rebates on your water/wastewater bills for local receipts. You read that right, you could earn a credit on your utility bill by buying and eating locally baked pizza, or by purchasing a gift card from your favorite downtown store, or by buying yourself some new novels at the local bookstore. Our local businesses make the possibilities seem endless. 

How does it work? The process is easy:

  1. Spend $25 at a local business or restaurant (you can combine two receipts) - the receipt must have the date and business name.
  2. Write your name (as it appears on your utility statement), phone number, and utility account number on the receipt(s).
  3. Scan and email the receipt to Municipal.Services@NewbergOregon.gov or drop off the receipt(s) in a sealed envelope at the gray and red dropbox in the Newberg Public Safety Building driveway (401 E 3rd St, Newberg, OR 97132). 
  4. The City of Newberg will credit $15 towards your utility bill.

You can earn up to 5 credits per account per month with a maximum credit of $75 per account.
