Electric Cost Adjustment

Due to an error made during the billing process, the electric cost adjustment was charged at a higher rate. This mistake has been fixed. Those that paid the higher rate will have a small credit toward their bill being printed and mailed on June 30.
If you have questions regarding this matter, please call the Light and Water Office at 618-382-5555. Hours are 7am- 3pm, Monday through Friday.
We realize that the community wishes to have more transparency regarding the electric cost adjustment. At this time, an ordinance is being drafted for the Council to review, and potentially approve, to set the cost adjustment every six months, during a City Council meeting. It is our hope that this can be considered by the Council in July.
The City of Carmi and Carmi Light and Water apologize for the inconvenience this may have caused.
