    Massachusetts’ largest electric utility company has recently declared that:

    • There are no cost savings to be had from “smart” meters.
    • “Smart” meters do not reduce outages.
    • “Smart” meters are not “grid modernization”.
    • “Smart” meters are a cyber-security risk.

    and

    • Contrary to the bogus claims of “smart” meter boosters, given the choice, few ratepayers will “opt in” and ask for a “smart” meter. They have no use for one.

    Northeast Utilities says – and I have been telling the Arizona Corporation Commission (ACC) for years – “For customers who will pay the price of this system, there is no rational basis for this technology choice.”

    City Council Weighs ATV Ban Ordinance Proposal
    By Tommy Acosta
    The Sedona City Council at its May 23, 2023 meeting took no action on a proposed ordinance that would ban all off-road vehicles from being driven on state-owned public roads or streets owned by the city. The ordinance, spearheaded by Sedona Mayor Scott Jablow on the premise that such vehicles pose a risk to the health, safety and welfare of the community, would impose heavy fines to anyone driving the ATVs or OHVs on city streets, including S.R. 179 and S.R. 89A. ATV rental companies have admitted that such vehicles are not intended or designed to be driven on paved roads, yet, in Arizona, they are allowed to do so under Arizona Revised Statute 28-1174 (4B). Opponents against the ordinance argued at the meeting that if adopted the ban would cripple the ATV rental industry in Sedona and cause much hardship to the owners and employees, as it would effectively, as written, destroy their livelihood.
