Public Hearings on Proposed DWP Rate Hike

Last fall, the City Council selected the Barrington Wellesley Group, Inc. (BWG) to perform an independent audit of the Department of Water and Power’s (DWP) revenue requirements. According to the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the City’s neighborhood councils and DWP, an independent revenue requirements audit must be conducted before DWP can raise rates.

This Saturday, April 22, 2006, BWG will present the findings of their revenue requirements audit to the public. Additionally, DWP will present their proposed water and power rate actions. This presentation will be followed by an open question and answer period.

The details are:
When: 1:30pm, Saturday, April 22
Where: John Ferraro Building
111 N. Hope Street
Los Angeles, CA

I encourage you to attend this meeting in order to receive the most up-to-date information regarding this matter.

Regards,

Bill
