Iroquois County Board approves fixed-rate natural gas contract with IGS Energy
Summary
After reviewing competing bids, the board approved a fixed-rate contract with IGS Energy recorded at $0.4570. The Management Committee recommended a 24- or 36-month fixed term; the meeting minutes contain inconsistent language about a 3-month vs. 36-month term, which minutes later show as a 36-month roll-call approval.
The County Board approved a fixed-rate natural gas contract with IGS Energy at a recorded rate of $0.4570.
Management Services received multiple bids and Chris Landstrom of Twin City Energy Services reviewed rates from Constellation, Mansfield Energy, IGS Energy and NextEra. The committee recommended selecting a 24- or 36-month fixed-rate option with IGS. At the full board, the motion was recorded as approval of a fixed rate with IGS at $0.4570. The meeting minutes contain inconsistent phrasing: the Management report text notes "the best rate choice at this time was the Fixed Rate with IGS at $0.4570 for a 3-month term," while the board roll-call language records approval "for a 36-month term." The roll call shows one abstention (Williams) and one absence (McGinnis).
County officials said rates change daily and that updated rates would be presented at the board meeting; the board recorded its approval based on the rates provided at the June 9 meeting.
