Summary
A council resolution on the April 29 agenda expresses the city's intent to join Utah's Community Renewable Energy Program when available and summarizes the PSC-approved initial rates, automatic enrollment with a six-month opt-out, and potential low-income credits.
The South Salt Lake City Council agenda for April 29, 2026 includes Resolution R2026 expressing the city's intent to join the Community Renewable Energy Program when it becomes available. The resolution cites the Community Clean Energy Act and the Interlocal Cooperation Act and summarizes the Public Service Commission order that set initial program pricing: an additional $4.00 per month for residential customers, a volumetric rate of $0.00609 per kWh for non-residential customers, and a non-residential low-income surcharge of $0.12 per month.
The resolution notes that ratepayers will be automatically enrolled with a six-month opt-out window from the first opt-out notice and that qualifying low-income ratepayers may be eligible for a credit or reduction. The agenda text does not record a council vote or public comment on the resolution; the document presented on the agenda is the basis for these details. The ordinance cites Utah Code § 11-13-102 and Utah Code § 54-17-901 as statutory authorities referenced in the resolution.
