    The Mesa City Council held a study session on April 15, 2024, to review agenda items and receive a presentation on the Energy Resources Department budget. The Electric System Superintendent reported that the City's electric utility maintained System Average Interruption Duration Index (SAIDI) performance below target, with fewer and shorter customer outages, though summer months experience higher outage numbers. The Energy Resources Program Manager compared power supply costs between Salt River Project and the City of Mesa, noting that the City is stabilizing customer rates through diverse, longer-term contracts while SRP increases rates gradually. The Natural Gas Superintendent indicated emergency response times increased from 2022 to 2023 but predicted decreases due to additional trained staff. The Senior Fiscal Analyst noted that Energy Resources Department budget estimates are higher due to inflation and temporary labor staffing costs for the fiber project.
