The impact of increases in natural gas rates for City of Pratt utility customers was a focus of the Pratt City Commissioners at their February 22 meeting, postponed from their scheduled meeting date of February 16 due to sub-zero weather conditions.
“Pratt citizens, and particularly business owners, are fortunate that the City of Pratt has a robust and diverse energy service profile,” said Commissioner Zach Deeds.
Pratt Electric Superintendent Jamie Huber said that natural gas prices went ridiculous as a result of the artic blast, which has an impact on city electric rates since natural gas is one of the fuels the city power plant uses to generate electricity.
