To the Editor: PGE GETS POWER BACK FAST - Would a PUD? During last weeks storm, PGE did a great job of getting the power back on in my neighborhood, Glendoveer. The outage lasted less than an hour. I heard on the news that more than half of the 8,000 customers who lost power in our region were back within two hours. Even the TV news anchors were singing the praises of PGEs linemen. PGE and its repair crews are famous for this type of work. Why risk turning it over to a peoples utility district, directed by politicians? From what I read in the voters pamphlet those candidates have zero, zip, nada experience running a utility company. I have the same concern for the future of Pacific Power, which is also the target of this government takeover in Multnomah County. On Nov. 4, please vote no on this poorly planned, risky proposal. Bekke Johnson Glendoveer |
