Change to Paying Your Electric Bill in Cash: Oct. 1

Due to the national discontinuation of the penny, we will not be able to give members pennies back as change when they make bill payments in cash. This will go into effect on October 1.

Heard us refer to ourselves as a “cooperative” but not really sure how that’s different from any other utility company?

➡Exists solely for the local community it operates in
