Kitsap voters decide on KPUD electric utility measure
Kitsap County voters are deciding whether to allow the public utility district to provide electric services. Proposition 1 authorizes a feasibility study and potential acquisition of facilities following customer complaints over rising rates.
Kitsap voters will decide on Proposition 1 during Tuesday evening elections, determining whether the local utility can provide electric services across the region. The ballot measure follows rising consumer utility rates across the United States. A successful vote grants the utility broad acquisition authority without requiring subsequent voter approval.
