REU wants roughly 4.5% annual increases for four years, which would add about $63 to a typical residential bill in year one and $339 more per year by year four. Councilmembers pushed hard on a 58% five-year jump in personnel costs, and the hearing was continued to March 17 with more workshops planned.
