EXPRESSING CONCERN REGARDING THE REQUEST FOR A 16.2% RATE
INCREASE BY THE SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDISON COMPANY TO THE
CALIFORNIA PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMISSION.
WHEREAS, a rate increase of 16.2% is to be presented to the California
Public Utilities Commission by Southern California Edison Company; and
WHEREAS, local governments and public agencies are large consumers of
electrical power for public services; and

to the City of Cypress of about $19,000 per year; and
WHEREAS, the City of Cypress respects the judgment of the Public Utilities
Commission and therefore would like to bring their concern relative to the
anticipated rate increase to their attention.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Cypress
urges the California Public Utilities Commission to carefully consider the
increased cost to cities when reviewing the request for a rate increase by the
Southern California Edison Company.
