ECP March Meeting Is Canceled

In order to give staff more time to discuss the voluntary rate increases with B1 and B2 customers, the ECP meeting scheduled for today, March 7, has been canceled.

On Tuesday, March 1, the city sent SME a letter stating that the city wants "to be relieved of any and all obligation that exist with Southern".

For six months, the city has been requesting documents from SME relevant to allowing the city to make decisions regarding ECP. SME has not been forthcoming, citing confidentiality and proprietary information.

Citizens have been bemoaning this lack of transparency since the inception of ECP, more than 5 years ago.

How much more in tax payer dollars will it take to resolve this impasse?

SME should be held accountable for our city's losses because of secret records and no open meetings.
