Meanwhile, you may also have received your January bill for December …and say What ?!?! ….Well, around here, most of January has been warmer than December. And as Carolyn Justice Hinson – Communications and Community Relations Officer of our Hometown Utility, Fayetteville’s Public Works Commission (PWC) – always reminds us – When there’s a noted difference between the average outside temp and our desired inside temperature, you’re going to have a higher utility bill than you’ll prefer!
And remember, to keep saving on your PWC bill, keep up with the tips and tools you’ll find on FayPWC-dot-Com! Thanks again to Carolyn Justice Hinson, Communications and Community Relations Officer at Fayetteville’s Public Works Commission (PWC).
Another frequent guest on Talkback brings us helpful, unique and le information every time she visits….and this time, helping us with the conversation, is 34-year-RETIRED Army Veteran (22 of those as an ARMY Chaplain), Fayetteville area Counselor – Barry Bowden.)
And that’s our show for today! Have a meaningful day tomorrow…reflecting on your dreams – and your service to others! May God continue to bless!
