Tucson voters are being asked to decide if they want to approve a 25 year deal that decides a lot of how Tucson Electric will deliver power.

TUCSON, Ariz. — It takes a lot of hardware, planning and money to make sure when you turn on a light, you actually get some light. Now

The Prop 412 vote to renew the franchise is May 16th but it’s an all mail ballot, and the ballots are circulating now.TEP says the agreement and the three-quarter percent boost over the 2.25% franchise fee voters pay now will put about a dollar a month on the average bill, and give the utility the ability to build more capacity and reliability for the future.

To carry that capacity TEP wants to run a large new line through neighborhoods north of University of Arizona. Residents objected to the original plan to put the lines on tall towers. Judith Anderson of Tucson Climate Coalition says running the lines underground benefits UA, Banner Hospital and the neighborhoods nearby, so they should pay the extra cost, not every Tucsonan who pays a bill to TEP.
