Town of Campbell urges PSC to review NYSEG delivery charges, authorizes complaints
Summary
The board adopted Resolution No. 3 of 2026 urging the New York State Public Service Commission to review NYSEG delivery charges, demanding greater transparency and authorizing formal complaints; the motion passed 4–0.
The Town Board on March 23 adopted Town of Campbell Resolution No. 3 of 2026 calling for an immediate and thorough review by the New York State Public Service Commission of NYSEG electric delivery charges and rate‑making practices.
The resolution, adopted by a 4–0 vote, states that residents, seniors and small businesses are experiencing repeated and compounding increases in electric bills driven largely by delivery charges and approved rate adjustments, and it directs the Town Supervisor to submit formal complaints, written comments and supporting documentation to the Public Service Commission and other officials. The resolution also directs the Town Clerk to transmit certified copies to NYSEG, the governor, state legislators and neighboring municipalities and states that it takes effect immediately upon adoption.
The minutes record the board’s concern that rural, low‑density communities are disproportionately affected by delivery charge increases and call for affordability protections and greater transparency from NYSEG and the PSC.
