The full story
The Springdale Town Council unanimously adopted Ordinance 2026‑11 on April 8, 2026, to join the Utah Community Clean Energy Program (CCEP) organized through Utah Renewable Communities and Rocky Mountain Power. Presenters (Tom Dansie and Randy Eaton) told council the Public Service Commission approved the program March 4, 2026, and that the program uses an opt‑out model: once ordinance adoption and utility enrollment are complete, customers will receive two notices (anticipated on November and December bills) and may opt out for free during the notice period and for the first four billing cycles after the rate appears. After that initial grace period, a termination fee applies.
