The issue of electrical rates has been coming up lately among Danville residents. Danville Mayor Rickey Williams told the city council and the media that the city has a program designed to save residents money. The rate is set by the Homefield company and is different than the rate from Ameren.  The city rate has been lower than Ameren’s for years, but Ameren may be slightly lower right now. The Mayor said being part of an electrical aggregation program assures local homeowners of a rate.

There are salesmen going door to door in Danville trying to get people to change what plan they are using. A person may opt out of the city’s program by calling Homefield at 866-694-1262
