New Prague PUBLIC UTILITIES HAS BEEN SERVING THE ELECTRIC
AND WATER NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY FOR More than 116 YEARS.
Local Values, Local Control
As a public utility, New Prague Municipal Utilities is governed by a five-person commission comprised of residents who are customers of the utility, and who are familiar with its operations and services.
Decisions about the operation and rates of New Prague Municipal Utilities are made by community members, at open, public meetings. Because all decisions are made locally, the utility is able to respond to the community’s needs, build on its strengths, and advance its values.
And whether a customer has a compliment or complaint, he or she can discuss the issue locally with the assurance they will be heard.
