Hillsboro makes adjustments due to energy prices
The City of Hillsboro Council met on Tuesday, April 6 where they voted to slightly increase the electrical rate ordinance to allow for the collection of surcharges related to the February 2021 winter storm charged to the city by Kansas Power Pool (KPP). The KPP was able to use their emergency funds to keep the power on and help out Hillsboro and other cities.
While the ordinance was approved at the meeting, customers will not see the charge on their bills until the first of June. The June bills reflects energy usage from mid-April to mid-May.
