Richardson approves smaller gas rate hike for Lone Star
Lone Star Gas Co accepts a 7.9 percent rate increase in Richardson after a council decision on May 25. The company had sought 21.84 percent and faced a potential drawn out appeal before the Railroad Commission if it rejected the ordinance. Management cites financial viability and hopes for future rate relief as natural gas costs align with other fuels. An automatic four cent per 1,000 cubic feet reduction will follow recouping losses from the Lovaca Gate Co. case, with $178,340 to be recouped before the drop applies.
