Last June, Cheyenne Light, Fuel, and Power asked the Wyoming Public Service Commission for permission to request $15.4 million in new revenue from the city’s rate payers. Media reports suggest this could result in a rate increase of up to 15% for residential rate payers. 

This summer, AARP Wyoming requested the chance for our members and all Cheyenne residents to comment on the proposed rate increase. This week the Public Service Commission, which gets to approve or deny rate increases, announced it wants to hear from you, the rate payer. 

This is your chance to make your voice heard. Take advantage of that opportunity before the Public Service Commission makes its final decision.
