[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Sep. 23—Tacoma Power and Tacoma Water customers might see an increase in their bills if a proposed rate increase is approved.

Tacoma Public Utilities is facing inflationary pressures, like many households and other businesses, Jim Sant, deputy director for administration for Tacoma Public Utilities said at the city of Tacoma's government performance and finance committee Tuesday.

The rates will be finalized by TPU's board next week. Tacoma Public Utilities will seek approval from Tacoma City Council in November.

Tacoma Power provides electrical service to more than 181,000 customers in Tacoma, Fircrest, University Place, Fife, parts of Steilacoom, Lakewood, Joint Base Lewis-McChord and unincorporated Pierce County.
