What’s in it

This bill relates to persons allowed to intervene in a proceeding under the Iowa utilities commission (commission). The bill creates a right to intervene in any proceeding conducted by the commission for any person who is a member of the general assembly or who is an elected county or city official. The bill also allows a resident to intervene in any proceeding under the commission if the resident has a minimally plausible interest in the proceeding.
