The Austin Energy City Council Committee, which is a committee of the whole, will meet for the first time March 26. Chair Sheri Gallo posted information on the Council message board Monday on some of the topics that will be covered, and asked for input on other topics. As of now, the committee will take up: financial foundation, refunding high-cost debt and reserves, demand-side management issues, arrearage and deferred payment plan management, and the utility’s Customer Assistance Program.
