The Hometown Connection: Rooted in Community. Here for every season.
Winter is here, and in this issue of the ALP newsletter reflects what it mean to be your hometown utility during the coldest months of the year. Inside, you’ll find community highlights, updates on local infrastructure projects and stories about the people behind ALP.
A Message from Ted, ALP’s General Manager
As I reflect on the past year at ALP one thing that stands out clearly: everything we do comes back to serving the Alexandria community.
From welcoming neighbors to our new Operations Center during our Public Power Week celebrations, to supporting local schools, investing in infrastructure and helping families through programs like HeatShare, this year has been a reminder of the many ways a community-owned utility can make a difference. These efforts aren’t about headlines or milestones, they’re about showing up, listening and doing the work that keeps our community strong.
You’ll see throughout this newsletter how our teams continue to plan ahead. Whether it’s drilling new wells, building new water towers, maintaining equipment or helping customers understand rebate opportunities, each project is part of a larger commitment to reliable service and long-term stability. We don’t take that responsibility lightly.
Most importantly, none of this happens without the people behind ALP. Their dedication is what keeps the lights on, water flowing and our systems ready for whatever comes next.
Thank you for your trust, your support and the opportunity to serve you. We’re proud to be your hometown utility, today and for generations to come.
Sincerely,
Ted Cash
General Manager, ALP Utilities
