Letter Request- determining the new Austin Energy GM

 

 Dear Mayor and Council-members:

 

 

We all understand that the future of Austin depends on the future of Austin Energy. Energy security is the single most important factor in our city’s economic competitiveness, in our evolution towards sustainability, and in our ability to keep residential and commercial energy bills affordable now and into the future. AE is also enormously important to the City’s overall budget.
