Hawthorn Woods public hearings
Hawthorn Woods officials have set public hearings for Nov. 26 and 27 at 7 p.m. on electric aggregation and the draft Plan of Operations and Governance. Contact Chief Financial Officer Kristin Kazenas with any comments or questions at kkazenas@vhw.org or (847) 847-3590. Before the aggregation program begins, all residents will receive two opportunities to opt out following the approval of the Plan of Operation and Governance, which will outline the procedure. Municipal electric aggregation allows municipalities to pool residential and small commercial retail customers together to seek bids with the aim of securing lower electric rates than those paid by ComEd customers that is set by the Illinois Power Agency. Hawthorn Woods voters on Nov. 6 approved the municipal electric aggregation ballot measure.
