Oh Boy, this is electrifying news!
V. W. Resident saw a notice in the local paper that Florida Power & Light will petition for a rate increase of 16%. The reason given is higher fuel costs and the Utility's' need to "pass these costs along to its' consumers."
Petitioning for a rate increase doesn't mean that FP&L will get that amount. It does mean one can count on paying more to our electric utility in the months ahead.
