Powering Kitsap’s Future: What the November Ballot Measure Means for Business

Kitsap voters will soon consider a ballot measure that could give Kitsap Public Utility District (KPUD) the authority to explore providing electric service in our community—a decision with potential long-term implications for residents and businesses throughout the county.

Join the Greater Kitsap Chamber for an important and timely conversation featuring representatives from Puget Sound Energy (PSE) and Kitsap Public Utility District (KPUD). Attendees will hear directly from both organizations about the ballot measure, what voter approval would—and would not—mean, and the considerations surrounding the future of electric service in Kitsap County.

For businesses, reliable and affordable energy is more than a utility issue. Energy costs, infrastructure investment, system reliability and resiliency, and the ability to meet future growth all affect the cost of doing business and the strength of our local economy.

The Chamber is bringing both organizations to the table to help our business community better understand the issue, ask informed questions, and consider what it could mean for Kitsap’s economic future.
