Co Op Unity Rally Faces City Power Franchise Move

More than two dozen Aiken Electric Cooperative consumer-owners joined leaders Friday to condemn the Aiken City Council plan to designate South Carolina Electric and Gas as primary power provider for newly annexed areas. The council approved a franchise with Aiken Electric but slated SCE&G as primary in the annexed zones, with a public hearing set for Oct. 2.
