Save the Date!

Attention Minneapolis: We need you and your neighbors at City Hall on August 1st at 9:00 am to show your support for an affordable, local and clean energy future for our city!

By a 10-3 vote on Friday June 28th, the Minneapolis city council agreed to hold a public hearing on a ballot measure to create municipal electric and gas utilities.  It’s the first step toward addressing rising energy costs and moving Minneapolis’ energy forward.

Minneapolis Energy Options is hosting a Rally at 9am-10am outside at the Hennepin County North Plaza supporting City Hall in keeping our energy options open. We need YOU at this rally to show that Minneapolis wants a better energy future.  

Then join us at the hearing on Minneapolis Energy Options' ballot measure, starting at 10am in the City Council Chambers. We are at a critical point in the campaign. In order for voters to have a voice at the polls, City Council needs to vote to put the measure on the ballot.

With corporate special interests working hard to kill the initiative and limit our choices as a community, we need to show our people power and community support. This hearing is your chance to have your voice heard on getting affordable, local, reliable and clean energy for Minneapolis!

Save the date - August 1st 9:00am at the Hennepin County North Plaza - and RSVP for the rally and hearing here.
