Patch's Poll: Would You Pay Higher Utility Rates For Fewer Outages?

Governor Malloy unveiled plans for the state to be more proactive about storm damage - would you pay more in exchange for more stable power?

On Jan. 11, Gov. Dannel Malloy "announced 'concrete' steps that will be taken to make the state better prepared for disasters."

The state-initiated Witt Report and Two Storm Panel have made recommendations about how to improve preparedness and response time for the state and the utilities.

Asked if some of these changes may mean higher utility rates, Malloy said, “It might.”
