Franchise Fee

The City Council has it on their agenda for Monday 8/10/09 to vote on a 5% franchise fee for gas and electric utilities. How will this affect you?

It is item 5 on the agenda:

"5. CONSIDER FOUR ORDINANCES PERTAINING TO AND AMENDING FRANCHISES GRANTED FOR THE USE OF PUBLIC RIGHT-OF-WAY WITHIN THE CITY OF SHAWNEE CREATING A CONSISTENT FEE RATE OF 5% OF GROSS RECEIPTS."

Is it good? Is it bad?

The council meeting starts at 7:30PM.
