Cheap Power Plan Pushed By City Makers Club

A Manufacturers' Club committee met Mayor Brown and Commissioner Kearny to propose San Antonio buy hydro power from Marble Falls dam owner C. H. Alexander. If delivered at 11.2 cents per kilowatt, it could lower costs for manufacturing and spark a new industrial city nearby. The plan envisions up to 30 000 kilowatts in future years and uses Marble Falls plus upstream Colorado River plants to stabilize supply. The city would assess local demand and, if needed, use excess for street lighting as current annual electric bills exceed 50 000 dollars.
