All written protests must include the signature of the protester and his or her name, the address of the site served by the utility, and whether the protester is a property owner or a rate-payer or both.

E-mail protests will not be accepted. If a majority of record owners or rate payers submit written protests to the proposed increases, the City Council shall not impose the proposed increases.
