By: Maria Borges-LopezDear Electors,SNEW is seeking to approve a rate increase and is holding a Special Electors Zoom Meeting on Tuesday, April 9th, at 6pm and they are requiring attendees to register in advance. No other public meetings for SNEW have previously required attendees to do so. Such registration will inevitably deter public attendance and reflects a lack of transparency. SNEW should seek to be transparent with Electors and not require any such registration in advance.
