Partnership Gives Milton Residents Discount On Gas South Plans

MILTON, GA -- The city of Milton is teaming up with Gas South to provide residents and businesses a two cent per therm discount on any rate plan.

New residential and business customers from the city do not have to pay a deposit, their connection fee is waived and if they enroll online, they will receive a bill credit. Existing Milton customers may also take advantage of the discount by calling the Gas South Customer Care Center or enrolling online.

"We're excited to join other Georgia cities in partnering with Gas South to provide our residents with discounts on their natural gas," said Mayor Joe Lockwood. "This is a great example of how consumer choice and public/private partnerships can both work to benefit the community."

Gas South has similar partnerships with 13 municipalities, five electric membership corporations and two county partners throughout the state of Georgia (SIGN UP: Get Patch's Daily Newsletter and Real Time News Alerts. Or, if you have an iPhone, download the free Patch app).
