We the citizens of Eugene Oregon and surrounding communities, will not accept the rates being charged on the February 2017 bill. It is not our fault that you (EWEB) incured serious losses from the ice storm of December 2016 but you had ample opportunity to get ready for the winter months. It's not fair in this community when we only have only one choice for our power needs and you are taking advantage of this community by trying to recoup your losses by gouging us. Most people in this town cannot afford to pay a bill that doubled over night based on estimates of power usage and we demand that you recalculate the bills and make corrections to reflect actual usage, as we are certain the majority of users power consumption did not change by twice as much. We are asking that you adjust the rates for the February bills accordingly and rebill the customers based on actual usage.

Also EWEB received Federal emergency funds. http://registerguard.com/rg/news/local/35215227-75...
