Town Hall to be held in Yuma about rising utility costs

Marcos Icahuate

YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA) – A community Town Hall discussion will be held on the rise of local utility costs.

Arizona Public Service (APS) rates may be rising, so the community is planning to discuss with the Residential Utility Consumer Office on Wednesday, November 12.

The Town Hall will be at the Yuma Main Library (2951 S. 21st Dr.) on November 12, from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m.

“Recent rate case proposals in Arizona have included factors such as high inflation and interest rates, infrastructure improvements and growth in energy usage,” said Cynthia Zwick, Director of the Residential Utility Consumer Office. “Ultimately, the elected members of the Arizona Corporation Commission will need to decide how much of what APS is proposing to recover from customers is ‘just and reasonable.'”
