LETTER TO THE EDITOR | PSE’s work will continue on island

To the editor:

The employees of Puget Sound Energy extend appreciation to our Whidbey customers for the support and confidence demonstrated in the Nov. 4 vote on the proposed PUD.

We did our best to provide information and are grateful for your trust. Please know that we will continue to work toward improving our traditional and energy efficiency services on Whidbey so that your confidence in PSE will only increase in the years ahead. If you have suggestions or comments about our service, please share them with me.

We enjoyed seeing many of you at the open house and Green Halloween bash at our new South Whidbey office and would like to invite you to upcoming workshops and other educational programs in Freeland, some of which also will be offered in Coupeville or Oak Harbor.

At 10 a.m. on Dec. 6, Andy Wappler, former KIRO weatherman and now PSE spokesman, will talk about energy efficiency, and on Dec. 13 a PSE specialist will discuss selecting and installing home back-up generators. Please watch this newspaper for more details coming soon.

COMMENTING RULES: We encourage an open exchange of ideas in the PNWLocalNews.com community, but we ask you to follow our guidelines for respecting community standards. In a nutshell, don't say anything you wouldn't want your mother to read. So keep your comments:

• Civil
• Smart
• On-topic
• Free of profanity

We ask that all participants own their words by registering for an account. It's a simple process that will take seconds and helps keep our comments free of trolls, cranks, and drive-by commenters.

As a community site, we ask that the community help by using the "Flag" button on each comment if they feel the comment has violated the rules. You can also use the up and down arrows on each comment to voice your opinion about that particular comment.
