Original:
Chapleau’s Public Utilities Corporation has applied to the Ontario Energy Board to change its electricity distribution rates and is interested in public feedback.
A community meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, February 5 in Chapleau at the Royal Canadian Legion from 6:30 pm to 8:30 pm. The doors open at 6:00 pm.
According to Chapleau Hydro, if its application were to be approved as filed, the typical residential customer using 750 kilowatts per hour of electricity per month would see a monthly increase of approximately $1.96 effective May 1, 2019.
Commercial customers in the general service area using 2,000 kilowatts per hour per month would see a monthly increase of $17.40 as of May 1, 2019.
