Neighbors,
The CAN welcomes EWEB Commissioner Joann Ernst to our January General Meeting.
Below is EWEB's description of Joann's visit.
The Eugene Water & Electric Board is Oregon's largest public utility, serving nearly
87,000 electric customers. As a public utility, EWEB does not operate to earn a
profit or to meet the investment needs of stockholders. Instead, EWEB has a
five-member Board of Commissioners who are elected by Eugene residents to serve
their interests. Joann Ernst, one of the five elected Board members, represents an
area roughly equivalent to the Churchill, Far West, Jefferson/Westside and Friendly
neighborhoods (City Council Wards 1 & 8). Her main areas of interest as an EWEB
Commissioner are energy conservation programs, renewable power, protecting the
McKenzie River, and facilitating community involvement and education.
Commissioner Ernst has requested an opportunity to meet with Churchill neighbors to
share information on some upcoming EWEB projects and respond to your questions about
utility issues. More specifically, Joann will discuss the underlying factors
leading to the Board's decisions to raise rates in 2011, introduce EWEB's upcoming
energy resource planning effort, and share some insights on the utility's first new
General Manager in twenty years, Roger Gray. Neighbors who can't attend the meeting
are welcome to contact their EWEB Commissioner directly at joann.ernst@eweb.org.
When: January 25th @ 7:00pm - 9:00pm
