WE THE UNDERSIGNED

Oppose the proposed GWP rate increase for the following reasons:

• The true power rate increase is about 32 % once compounding and Utility User Tax is considered.

• Fuel Adjustment Charge was not considered, even though this charge is part of everyone’s bill and is projected to increase due to the Federal Mandate on renewable energy.

• The estimated $ 21 million to be collected with the proposed rate increase would NOT be necessary if the City of Glendale were not transferring $21 million of electrical receipts to pay for services unrelated to the Utility.

We ask that the Glendale City Council do not raise Utility rates until they stop the transfers and use all the utility receipts for the Utility.
