Putting the cart before the horse..."JB said...<br />Putting the cart before the horse, it seems."<br /><br />Do you think another less stressful employment opportunity came up and scared the commission? <br /><br />I remember when the last Waukesha city administrator got a raise and told everyone how she loved Waukesha and had estabilished roots in Waukesha and was committed to the city (after applying for a position in Columbia, MO and not getting the job). Shortly thereafter she bolted for a job in Ill. She was expected to get the city through the budget cycle. <br /><br />This guy has been asked to do the impossible. The stress of having all the curtain road blocks put in his path (which everyone told the utility would happen), has to be taking it's toll.<br /><br />A deal structured like this seems to indicate "Plan B" is getting a more serious look. <br /><br />Not one state has to say no to a Lake Michgan Diversion. They need only to sit on the application to kill it. <br /><br />That's the most likely outcome in my opinion.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621691715090523319.post-21835038154008656082012-06-17T09:44:07.597-05:002012-06-17T09:44:07.597-05:00You ask for a rate increase approval by the Public...You ask for a rate increase approval by the Public Service Commission and this is where it goes?<br /> <br />Stunning and worthy of great scrutiny by the public and the Public Service Commission.

Even though I don't even live in Waukesha, I appreciate the ways you're showing me your love.<br />Our Utility employees, meanwhile, have been subject to the usual pension and benefit give-backs. I bet they appreciate it, too.<br /><br />love,<br />Dan DuchniakMax Bnoreply@blogger.com
