YCT Nay. SB 614 would have required utility companies to charge consumers $0.50 per billing cycle to be deposited into a fund to assist owners of certain historic structures with their electric bill payments and to “promote energy conservation and efficiency.” The legislature should not impose new fees on electricity consumers in order to fund pet projects.
