Look on your Village ID card. Just above the barcode is a house lot identifier. If this starts with a S you’re in Sumter County. L = Lake, M = Marion.

Thank you for that insightful and helpful post. :bigbow:

So in your case, where there was an expansion into an area that previously did not have service, Leesburg, Duke and TECO all had the opportunity to expand their franchise agreements into that area. Citrus Grive was awarded to Leesburg Electric and Gas. Hope that helps.

Great post. That really does help me understand it. Thank you.

Rates
 
Question. I asume rates are regulated by the state and it wouldn’t matter who the provider is, does anyone know that to be the case?

And they should ! Why should anyone trust the local government? This place isn’t ran like a democracy no say so or voting on anything. It’s been predetermined for decades just write a check and tell everyone you love living here and if someone criticizes just attack them as it is done on next door and everyone else

Another snarky reply which adds nothing.

Sumter County taxes are lower than Lake County and Marion County.

My husband and I are from St. Catherine's, and both our gas and electric come from City of Leesburg.
