Item 81 Motion Sheet

Post by Ryan Alter »

Colleagues,
I cannot support the proposed settlement in the Texas Gas Service rate case. The proposal does not discourage lower use, provides minimal support to low income customers, and increases corporate returns on the backs of hard-working residents. To that end, I will be offering the attached motion sheet, which removes our affirmation of the settlement. While I appreciate the work of the coalition’s negotiating team, I do not believe the proposal is consistent with the city’s climate values and duties to our constituents.
