Planning on Intervening in the FPL Rate Case
Pinecrest and the neighboring municipalities
have the unique opportunity to file as interveners in the FPL rate case, but
this must be completed soon, because the case will be decided in October 2012.
Pinecrest and the participating municipalities will be represented by a Bill
Garner and Brian Armstrong of Nabors, Giblin, & Nickerson, Attorneys at Law,
which specializes in representing municipalities in disputes with utilities.
This is the same legal firm that's representing Pinecrest in the Transmission
Line proceedings. Pinecrest's share of the legal costs would be capped at
$25,000 and they have commitments from other municipal and commercial property
owners as partners, allowing us to share the costs of litigation. Pinecrest is
still soliciting several other municipalities and local business interests to
join in. That sure beats paying $1.4 million a year, and maybe we gain some
leverage on our transmission line problem along the way.
