June 2021 Newsletter
Dear valued member,

We just concluded our 2021 director elections and want to thank those who took the time to cast their vote! Voter turnout this year was just 24%, lower than in previous years, so we hope to see a higher return in 2022.

The future of LPEA's power supply was a big point of discussion this election season. To address some of the questions, concerns, and misinformation out there, LPEA's CEO Jessica Matlock penned a detailed update included in this edition.

In other big news, expect your Capital Credit refund in July. As a reminder, this is a direct pass-through of the benefit of the recent 2% rate reduction from our power provider Tri-State. To save even MORE money, consider switching to LPEA's Time-of-Use rates. More details on both below.

Warm regards,

Hillary Knox, VP of Member Experience
