Front Royal Rejects Potomac Edison Settlement

Front Royal Town Council voted 2 to 1 with one abstention to reject a negotiated Potomac Edison rate settlement. The plan would have raised wholesale rates by two 90 000 dollar increments over two years starting next June, about 70 percent of the requested hike, with a 10 percent annual street. The vote came as other electric coops signed the deal and town officials considered continuing the fight or going to the FPC for a potentially higher charge.
