They are operated by local <br />governments as a public service with the mission of providing electricity in a reliable manner, at <br />a reasonable cost, and with proper protection of the environment. Public power companies <br />exist to serve our fellow citizens, friends, and neighbors. Elk River Municipal Utilities’ loyalty is <br />to our customers and our community, not stockholders. We are proud to be a public power <br />utility and to help make our community a great place to live and work. Every year we recognize <br />Public Power Week as a reminder of the responsibility we have to our consumer-owners. <br /> <br />ATTACHMENTS: <br />• Resolution No. 22-10 - Recognizing 2022 Public Power Week <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />3
