For local control over our community’s power choices, a broad base of volunteers has come together as Power to the Public, a nonprofit group dedicated to offering the choice of a publicly owned power system for Thurston County businesses and residents.

Volunteers are gathering the 15,000 signatures needed by July to put this initiative, below, on the November ballot.

The undersigned persons, all of whom reside within Public Utility District No. 1 of Thurston County, hereby petition the Thurston County Board of County Commissioners to place on the ballot, at the November 2020 general election, the proposal that Public Utility District No. 1 of Thurston County be authorized pursuant to RCW 54.08.070, to construct or acquire electric facilities for the generation, transmission, or distribution of electric power.

Please donate your time and money to a shared vision of reliable, affordable, and sustainable power for Thurston County.
