Oberlin rate case hearing opens amid delay in price fight
In Columbus on August 30 the Public Utilities Commission postponed the Oberlin rate case hearing to September 10 due to the absence of city attorney Harold Burton. Ohio Electric Power Co seeks 15 to 40 percent rate cuts, about 12 percent for residents under its plan, which conflicts with Oberlin's municipal plant contract that sets both minimum and maximum rates. City Manager Sears asserts the proposal violates the contract and questions PUC jurisdiction.
