During its September meeting, Tipmont’s board of directors voted on and accepted the following increases to Tipmont’s fees and credits portion of its electric rate tariff.

MINIMUM METER TAMPERING FEE

The minimum amount charged to those found to tamper with Tipmont electric meters is now $500.

TRIP FEE

The trip fee incurred for service visits is now $100. This fee is waived if the responsibility for resolving the electric issue rests with Tipmont.

TEMPORARY SERVICE FEE

The fee incurred to provide temporary electric service to a location, rather than continual service, is now $250.

These changes will be implemented beginning with November’s first billing cycle, on Nov. 22.
