CPS Energy opens applications for its rebranded public input committee

Applications to be a member of the CPS Energy Community Input Committee are officially open and will close on Friday, May 17. Those interested in applying can do so

The RAC was retired last summer after helping give the board public input on its first rate increase in eight years and a new generation portfolio. While the CAC has existed since 1998, its meetings have previously been closed to the public. The rebranded committee will hold open meetings the public can attend or tune into, CPS Energy said in a press release.

There are currently 14 sitting members on the CIC who were formerly on the CAC. The four new committee members will each come from one of four quadrants spanning the utility’s service area. Applicants can view the quadrant map and use an interactive tool to determine their quadrant CPS Energy Board of Trustees will review all applications and select the four members, one from each quadrant. The existing CIC members will select the at-large candidate. All five new candidates will be brought before the CPS Energy Board of Trustees for final approval at the board’s next meeting on Monday, June 24.
