The notes below may document a route, rule, or explicit public-information limit. General preparation steps are not represented as utility policy.
- Leak-adjustment policy
- No current Hondo page reviewed publishes a high-bill leak adjustment formula, cap, repair-receipt checklist, or sewer credit. Customers should stop the leak, preserve meter and repair evidence, and request Utility Billing review.
- Utility assistance program
- Account holders age 65 or older can receive an automatic 10% discount on water, sewer, and electric services after providing proof of ID. The reviewed page does not state a separate dollar cap.
- State and federal aid connection
- No municipal LIHWAP/LIHEAP workflow is documented. Hondo households should call 2-1-1 Texas and Medina County/community-action agencies, then provide any approved aid pledge to Utility Billing.
