The City of Tucson is holding a special election in May that would have Tucson residents vote on a new fee that would be added to their TEP bill.

TUCSON, Ariz. — When it comes to saving energy, there are a lot of ways that Tucson resident Duane Ediger does his part.

He said it wouldn’t help the environment because transmission would go on whether it’s above or below ground. As for whether he feels like the city can become carbon neutral by 2030, Ediger said he doesn’t think so.The new fee would also go towards the City’s Climate Action and Adaptation Plan. That plan is just a draft right now but it talks about how the City can tackle other climate issues.

The City of Tucson says even with their plan, carbon emissions can still go up by the year 2030, but says they would be higher without their plan.On average, the new fee would only be about 93 cents a month for residential areas, $2.65 a month for small businesses, and could go up to almost $4 thousand a month for larger users.He’s excited more money would go towards the City’s Climate Action and Adaptation plan.
