Westario Disconnection Report Due Soon

Westario Power is expected to release a report regarding its disconnect policy in the next couple of weeks.

Westario Board member and Brockton Mayor David Inglis told Brockton council that the report will be presented to the munciaplities that hold shares.

The municipally-owned company came under scrutiny this past winter when several customers had their power cut off due to missing payments.

"I guess they [muncipal councils] can do with it as they please. I would expect in the next couple of weeks we should see that report, and maybe even sooner," says Inglis.
