City council approves four percent electric rate rise in Ukiah
Ukiah council members approve a four per cent rise in city electrical rates effective immediately with an 11 per cent potential May increase. A residential user using 1000 kWh would jump from 23.30 to 24.40 now and to 26.85 if the May hike occurs. Council members weigh ongoing PG&E costs and a split rate to ease consumer impact while reviewing all utility rates before 1975-76 budget time.
