ATCO Gas Franchise Agreement
October 30 2024The Alberta Utilities Commission expects to receive an application from ATCO Gas and Pipelines Ltd. to approve the existing current and valid natural gas distribution franchise agreement with the Summer Village of Itaska Beach. This application for approval is required due to changes made by the Utilities Affordability Statutes Amendment Act, 2024, to various statutes governing franchise agreements.
No changes to the franchise agreement or to the franchise fee rate rider percentage are being made as part of this application. The franchise fee rate rider percentage will remain at its current rate, which is 12%. Including linear taxes, the resulting average monthly franchise fee for an average residential customer will remain the same at approximately $6.93. The franchise fee is calculated based on distribution charges. An average residential customer uses about 105 gigajoules per year.
You may send your concerns about, objections to, or support for the application in writing to the Summer Village of Itaska Beach or to ATCO Gas and Pipelines Ltd. on or before Friday, November 15, 2024 at:
