The Arizona Corporation Commission is holding a three-day Special Open Meeting beginning at 9 a.m. Monday, October 4, 2021, continuing at 9 a.m. October 5 and October 6. The Special Open Meeting is the beginning of the Commission’s discussion, consideration, and possible vote on Arizona Public Service Company’s (APS) pending rate application.

APS is proposing a 5% rate increase, which would net them over $169 million a year, and affect over 2.7 million customers.

During the three-day Special Open Meeting Commissioners will hear from members of the public, APS officials, and other parties to the proceeding regarding the Recommended Opinion and Order drafted by one of the Commission’s Administrative Law Judges.

Commissioners will also discuss and possibly vote on various amendments being offered by each Commissioner.

Public comment will be taken on the first day of the Special Open Meeting. Members of the public wishing to provide comments are encouraged to dial-in and get in the telephonic que before 9 a.m., as we anticipate a large volume of callers.
