Municipalities are key partners in helping Ontario become a clean energy leader. The municipal role in renewable energy development can include participating as a developer, encouraging projects for economic development purposes, establishing renewable energy policies and targets, providing comments and input on project design via the consultation process, authorizing the use of municipal property, entering into agreements with developers and enacting by-laws affecting projects, or any combination of these roles.

This guide is intended to help municipalities understand the renewable energy development process, with particular attention paid to the rights, responsibilities and opportunities for municipalities to be meaningful participants in development.

Unpaid water bills + collections

I was the Surprise City Hall reporter at The Arizona Republic, so most of my stories focused on activism or city hall activities. My ears perked up at a city council meeting one night when I heard about collection agencies and bill collectors during a discussion about compliance with the state's laws on water billing. 

I found out Surprise uses collection agencies to collect unpaid water bills, a trend mentioned to me when I was doing my story about collection agencies. They started the practice about a year prior, and didn't tell anyone about the change. I found out other municipalities were doing it, in light of higher defaults and smaller staffs. It was neat to discover a trend among Valley cities and that they were all responding similarly.
