@Jellolorum

And just to be clear, I have been a permanent resident since service was initiated. I live and receive mail here in BBC, my kids go to school here. I'm the damn definition of a permanent resident, both legally and otherwise.

@Jellylorum

I wrote out a whole thing here describing the situation, but it was "too long" so it didn't post...and I'm not writing it again, lol.

tldr: They scheduled me based on my mailing address, which is not legal based on the tariffs from CPUC, though even if it was, I have a bill from April that has my service and mailing address in BBC, yet BVES still scheduled me DO for that month. This is typical BS from a private utility that is happy to steal money from it's customers.

The CPUC is going to take care of it for me, and then fine BVES...which, we will all end up paying for when they increase rates

DrunkPirate - Only one home is your permanent home with the locals rate.

When I was living in one home and building my current home, only one was on the permanent local schedule. When I moved into the newly completed home, I had to call the BVES office to have the permanent local schedule applied to that home, even though by then the electricity had been turned off at my original home.

RESCUE in BIG BEAR LAKE
Hey John, So I Think The Plan Is We Are Going To Set The Tower Up Over The Side Of The Dam And Lower Down The Stokes Bastetia. We Have A Mega Mover In There, Some Extra Gloves And We Will Bring Her Up When You Guys Get Her All Packaged. You Might Want To Send A Rope Back Down Too. We Might Need A Tagline To Clear This Rock Cropping. Copy That.

Hey all! Quick question...does anyone know why I would be rate schedule DO with Bear Valley Electric as a permanent resident?
bullet marshall on Tuesday 14 July 2026 - 11:41:35
HIB,
Dirtbags for sure. They would have better luck robbing folks on skid-row in LA. Hopefully they are all caught and spend some time in jail or prison. But more than likely will be back on the streets by morning.
bullet holeinbow on Tuesday 14 July 2026 - 11:01:09
Being an arbolado alum from the mid seventies, it strikes me as slightly ridiculous. What can you expect to gain by sticking up a twelve year old? The money is likely back at the y offices off the hill. None of our counselors were exactly loaded with money either...
bullet AOFAN on Tuesday 14 July 2026 - 10:40:22
Reported on the AO Facebook page. 4 men caught on camera at Arbolado ? Police arrived and arrested one man. Three are on the loose looking to hide. Lock your doors!
