Lubbock citizens are tired of being bullied by the monopoly that is Lubbock Power & Light. This petition is to demand from the city council that Lubbock releases all meter rights inside city limits and allow other power companies to do business here as well. We are tired of not having any options and not having a voice when it comes to a company you claim "we own" as citizens. Release your hold on all the meters and allow competition in Lubbock!
My family is tired of paying these outrageous rates for a service that ignores our needs. We are nearing two hundred fifty signatures and need a final push to force the city council to finally listen to us.

I am putting my own utility bills on the table because I know how much this monopoly hurts our families. We are about to hit the first hundred names and hitting that goal today will show the council we are serious about ending their control.

I am sick and tired of being forced to use LP&L. I want other options!!! I am sick of seeing my bill increasing every cycle when I do nothing different. We have laws in this country prohibiting monopolies for just this reason. The citizens of Lubbock deserve better!!! This just shows how corrupt the City of Lubbock is. I am, like many people I know, planning on moving just to get outside of LP&L's service territory!

Lubbock needs to get with the times. No reason we should be stuck with one company in 2017.
