Letter to the Editor: Is Municipal Ownership the Way to Go For Summit Power?
Madison, with its municipal power company, is said to have recovered more quickly after Sandy. Should Summit take notes?
Madison has done much better in this power outage than Summit.
The only explanation I have heard is that their utility is owned by the municipality. This doesn't make sense to me. Branches fall on wires and knock out power irrespective of who owns the utility.
Is it the case that the little borough of Madison was better prepared than mighty First Energy? If so, how come our city government doesn't do the same thing?
