LCEC announced that it will provide the City of Sanibel, the Clinic for the Rehabilitation of Wildlife (CROW), Coastal Keepers, the Calusa Land Trust and Nature Preserve of Pine Island, Inc., the Bailey-Matthews National Shell Museum, and the Monofilament Busters with environmental funding awards. Nearly $79,500 has been awarded since the program’s inception in 2014. To apply for this award, organizations can email pr@lcec.net to receive an application. The next deadline for a 2018 award is September 1, 2018. Interested organizations must meet certain criteria to be considered for the award including being located within LCEC service territory, funding utilized for projects/programs related to the environment and the utility industry, and having a demonstrated need for funds. This funding award is just one of the many ways that LCEC positively impacts and supports wildlife and the environment.
Earlier this year LCEC retired more than $7 million in equity to customers with inactive accounts. Last week, the Board of Trustees approved an ALLOCATION of $14.5 million in net margins and $1 million in unclaimed equity to LCEC members.
Allocated equity is not in the form of cash, it is a credit and used as working capital. This capital is aimed at building and improving the electric system. Member investment helps to reduce the need for borrowing money and allows for lower interest rates when loans are secured. Consequently, this process helps to keep rates low.
In time, a portion of member equity is retired. Active members receive a credit on their bill if the retirement is less than $250. A check is delivered for retirements of more than $250 or to inactive accounts. It is important that members keep their addresses updated in the LCEC database.
LCEC is proud to have returned more than $255 million in equity to members over the years.
Someone you know may be a missed paycheck away from making the tough decision between paying the electric bill or the mortgage. You can help someone in need by donating to the LCEC Power to Share Program. This program is a partnership between LCEC and the United Way where short-term emergency assistance is available to customers in LCEC’s service territory who meet the requirements.
