The Kansas Corporation Commission approved a rate increase for Kansas Gas Service that will result in residential customers paying an average of nearly $4 more each month on their bills.
According to a news release issued Thursday, a settlement agreement reduced the $58.1 million net revenue increase originally requested by Kansas Gas Service to $35 million.
For residential customers, the agreements mean an average user will see an increase of approximately $3.83 per month or $46.02 per year. The new rates will take effect on Nov. 1.
