Bellingham’s municipal electricity aggregation program will continue toward a new supplier contract, but the meeting did not set a future electricity rate. Residents remain automatically enrolled in Power Choice while retaining the option to opt out. For the November election, early voting will operate at half of regular business hours during the first week and at regular business hours during the second week.
