Winter weather reminder: If you have overhead lines feeding electricity to your home, learn the facts about masts. This important piece of equipment, usually at your roof line or at your meter, must be in working order for us to deliver power to your home. Also, if you see downed power lines, never touch or go near them. Call 9-1-1. 

SDS to benefit entire region: Pueblo County is considering our permit application for the Southern Delivery System this week. SDS is a regional water project that will provide many benefits to Colorado Springs and Pueblo County. Learn more.

Rate increase cut nearly in half: Lower than expected wholesale natural gas prices provides unexpected relief for customers preparing for higher heating bills this winter. As a result, an increase to natural gas prices is not proposed, significantly lowering the overall rate increase to 11.9 percent. Increases in electric, water and wastewater services are still planned.

2009 Budget approved: Our 2009 annual budget and annual sources of funds were approved by City Council on the second reading Dec. 9, 2008.
