Ron,
No I have nothing to do with PG&E. The only thing they have in this town is the natural gas. When the three small towns incorporated they formed their own power and water district. SLMUD. Shasta Lake Municipal Utilities
District and signed their contracts for water with the McConnell Foundation. The electricity we get straight from the dam and get from the Federal Govt. as they own and run that. But our sewer system and the old water lines do need replacing, I just don't think they will use the money for that. If they had used what they have taken in over the years and did some maintenance, this would not be necessary, and since many in this town are old and retired I fear there are going to be a bunch more homeless when they get these new rates in. Especially after the 4th year of them.
The increase is just for the City of Shasta Lake. Redding has their own problems and lawsuits going right now and they have nothing to do with us.
Ron
