Interim BWL chief criticizes capital project’s “hidden costs”

For two months, our first guest has been navigating highly publicized change at the Lansing Board of Water and Light.
 
Dick Peffley’s retirement was interrupted in mid-January when he was asked to serve as interim General Manager of the city-owned utility after the sudden dismissal of Peter Lark.
 
Peffley spent 38-years at the Board of Water and Light in several managerial positions including as Executive Director of Operations and once before as interim General Manager.
 
When he accepted the job, he commented “I want to do what’s best for the BWL and our customers in providing reliable water and electric service that customers can count on.”
 
Dick Peffley joined Current State to shed some light on his two months back at the top of the BWL.
