A few years ago electric bills were sky high and towns had residents sign up with an alternative company to Com Ed for a discounted rate. Around 2 years later I found I could get it cheaper elsewhere and opted out. The company was affiliated with Comcast. After a year, the contracted time, I should have checked on prices again but due to health issues forgot about it. My bills started getting high. A year later I looked closely at the bill and saw I was paying double what I had contracted for. I called Com Ed and found they were charging $6 per KWH and I was paying $11 like school district 158. I switched back to Com Ed. It took 2 months to get out of the contract but now my bills have gone down from around $185 in the summer to $125 and less in the winter.

Is no one watching at District 158 or perhaps even the town of Huntley what rates are? They should be paying Com Ed directly, not thru a middle man and should be pay- ing the $6 rate not $11. As A school they probably would pay even less. Our school taxes are extraordinarily high and poor management plays a big role in it. We would be saving so much money if someone checked rates monthly. This has been going on for years.
