rate increase

Days after a power outage affecting more than 100,000 New York customers, NYSEG is preparing to raise its electricity rates again.

A planned rate hike for New York State Electric and Gas for the next three years is being drastically trimmed by state regulators.

NYSEG rate increases for electricity and gas delivery have been delayed until October due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Johnson City Mayor Greg Deemie says officials will be scheduling a public hearing to talk about the sewer rates in the Village that could be going up.

According to several media reports, Charter Communications, which owns Spectrum Cable and internet, plans to increase rates for cable packages.

The stake-holders in Broome County’s major sewage treatment facility agree on a compromise budget that will mean no rate increases for Binghamton customers.

The New York State Public Service Commission is giving the green light to rate changes for NYSEG and Rochester Electric and Gas that increase fees for electricity and natural gas delivery for the first time in four years.
