Saxbe Urges 25 Cent Fee for Ohio Bell Study
Columbus reports Attorney General William Saxbe proposes an independent inventory of Ohio Bell property to justify rate filings. He suggests a 25 cent per subscriber voluntary levy to fund the study, a plan backed by city officials seeking to challenge the company's earnings on its facilities. The Utilities Commission might provide funds, with Columbus Toledo Canton Youngstown and Cleveland weighing options. The last Legislature approved over a million dollars for rate studies.
