CLEVELAND — Rebecca Kempton is just one of some 45,000 Cleveland FirstEnergy electric account holders who are wondering how much her electric bill could be going up next month.
Kempton believes it's a rate increase that should have been avoided and will hurt low-income families and seniors on a fixed income the hardest. Both Kazy and Maurer said the delay has dozens of residents calling their offices, wondering how much higher their bills will be in June and why the city didn't do a better job in protecting them from the upcoming rate hike.
Maurer said she expects complaints from Cleveland FirstEnergy users, who have been left unprotected from the rate hike, will soon be pouring into her office in the coming weeks.
