Nightmare on OUR street: Trick or Treat?

Choice = Power
We still have it.
 
Keep Your Power:
Refuse "Smart" Meters!
Dear Friends and Neighbors,

 

Over the weekend Dave and I attended a super fun Halloween party where the ghoulish met the mysterious and mingled with the politically correct and incorrect. We laughed and clinked glasses with zombies, Disney characters, Clorox's double impact "plumber," and even a City of Naperville and "smart" meter couple
...
Nightmare in NaperWorld  
What lurks in the shadows of City Hall when residents are tucked safely in their homes? Tricks or treats? Unfortunately, the nightmare continues as the City of Naperville's multi-million dollar expenditure in 57,000+ digital utility meters (DUM) continues to grow, much like their investment in the $4 Billion Prairie Coal Plant which is going to be generating most of Naperville's electric power. Could the City be trying to play the ultimate "trick" on its residents by convincing them that they need to replace a perfectly good meter with a risky meter so that they can cover the cost of a coal plant that's not even working or producing power? The City's version of a "treat" is to give us a product that doesn't work and pay for a plant that doesn't produce (see page 9 of "What Are the Real Costs of Prairie State?").  Isn't this fraud? 
 
Smart Grid projects are proving to be a bust all over the country. The City of Naperville has used Fort Collins and Boulder, CO, as their "bench mark" cities.  Recent articles show that Colorado taxpayers are being asked to foot the exorbitant cost overruns. 
 
 
The City of Naperville continues to make investments that are unwise that we're all going to have to pay for unless there is some resident accountability.
 
 
News:
So... when UPA or the City of Naperville rings your door bell and says "Trick or Treat," tell them to go where all ghouls and goblins go and to take their tricks with them.
 
Be Educated, Be Empowered, Be Moved to Action,

Meter Guards, Electricians & No Trespass Signs
Across the country, residents have taken matters into their own hands. They have guarded their analog meters.   They have hired electricians to de-install smart meters when utilities have refused. They are locking up their gates, posting NO TRESPASS signs and protecting their property.*

This is no longer about smart meters. 

This is about protecting your personal property. 

This is about protecting your constitutional rights.

You are protected under the 4th, 5th, and 14th Amendment and the Energy Policy Act of 2005.

This is a utility policy that is being marketed as a mandated project. It is an opt in program.

Stand your ground!  
Protect your property!  

It is your home! 

You have the right to protect your property from something that may harm you!


Take back your power!


More that you can do
Many residents do not want a smart meter installed on their home.  They want the choice and according to the U.S. Constitution and the Energy Policy Act of 2005, we have that right. The city has denied its residents the choice.

According to the city you will have opportunities to refuse the wireless smart meter, but you must sign up for the non-wireless alternative and pay the monthly penalty fee to protect your home and family. If after the 3rd attempt to install a meter on your home, and you have not signed up for the alternative, the city says it will bring a police escort to your home to intimidate you into allowing the installation of the wireless smart meter.

We feel this is outrageous. There must be something serious wrongly with smart meters if the city has to threaten you to install one.

Contact the Governor (312-814-2121) or click here to email
