Figures were not readily available.
The proposed overall Bangor Hydro -Electric rate increase is approximately 13%. This figure blends
together different rate structures, depending o use category; i.e., streetlights, commercial,
residential, etc. 13% would add approximately $100,767 to the City's electricity charges on an
annual basis, based upon the 1990-91 budgeted figures, and if effective July 1, 1991.
