Your rates are set by the Portland City Council, which sets utility rate increases with the annual Budget Resolution
Municipal electric utilities are outside MPSC rate regulation. Rates are set locally, in public meetings of the governing board or city council.
What you can do
There is no public rate docket to comment on. Rate decisions happen at the Portland City Council, which sets utility rate increases with the annual Budget Resolution, whose meetings are where a rate concern belongs.
