Commissioners Heard Issue Regarding Utility Bill Payments
Commissioners Heard Issue Regarding Utility Bill Payments
Health Department Director Vicki Lindsey brought an issue before commissioners for consideration on Monday, September 11. Lindsey notified commissioners that her department keeps getting assessed late fees for a utility bill. As this has been a persisting issue, with late fees of roughly $9.99 being charged, Lindsey asked if another method of payment could be utilized to avoid this - requesting that they consider affording her office to pay the utility bill by card. She noted that this has been an issue as long as she has worked for the county and this has an impact on the budget. As potential solutions were discussed, it was shared that it was believed that utilities must be approved according to state statute. All departments receiving a late fee for utilities are to be considered and Legal Counsel Paul Dean was asked to look into creating a solution for this issue. 09/12/2023 11:00 PM

As rising costs continue to hit Americans’ pocketbooks, let’s highlight some easy ways that can help you save on your energy bill. A good place to start is knowing what your costs are, and whether they are trending up or down. Your cost per kilowatt hour (kWh) that you see on your energy bill can change independently of the other rates. In order to figure out your cost per kilowatt hour, take the electricity charge divided by the electricity used. This can help you figure out how much each kilowatt of energy costs. 09/05/2023 04:00 AM
Rockin’ Robin!
Rockin’ Robin!
If you’ve read my editorial within the last year, it comes as no surprise that this year has been a struggle for yours truly. Whether it be personal or work related, there have been many hurdles that have been thrown my way. From trying to adapt my work schedule to accommodate now having a junior high student to dealing with constant price increases merged with a decrease in subscriptions, the road has not been smooth. I’m confident that I will adapt the scheduling piece (it might be in 2030 when the youngest graduates, but we will get there), but to be a successful small business owner, adaptation is a daily need. Knowing that I tend to add more to my plate than can be done in a given day, a friend asked me recently, “Why do you set yourself up for failure?” They weren’t being crass, but rather were pointing out the fact that it’s impossible to do all the things, be all the places and still have a healthy personal/work life balance. I say this every year, but, I truly am working on boundaries and/or limits. Spending more time at a golf course, making time for ‘me-time’ and ensuring that I don’t get the computer out while spending time with family. Setting boundaries is a necessity and I’m working on doing that as well. I know I will never cover all the things that people “expect,” but, I will always do my best to cover the communities that I love being a part of. But, I will put boundaries in place to ensure that I can get the needed pieces to fit within the daily puzzle. I know I will miss the days of running from activity to activity one day, so, here’s to taking in all the memories of having two boys at home. 09/05/2023 04:00 AM
