By Benjamin Cox on April 3, 2021 at 12:50pm Roodhouse and White Hall municipal natural gas customers have some relief from the unusually high February bills coming their way. To combat the large bills, the White Hall City Council passed an additional $1.60 per dekatherm on natural gas usage for the next 3 years as they work to pay off the huge bill that came the city’s way in February. White Hall’s February gas bill totaled around $600,000, more than 6 times its normal total for a month. The Illinois Finance Authority granted White Hall a $499,000, 1% interest loan to cover the cost. The loan will have to be paid off over the next 20 years. The White Hall City council approved the gas rate hike over the next 3 years to cover the balance, which according to the city’s gas engineer Lindsay Enloe, will only raise monthly bills to between $8-10 a month on average. The gas rate hike is expected to be seen on this month’s bill.
