There has to be more to this. What was so bad that none of these 3 could pull themselves out of this funk long enough to seek help for themselves and the other 2?

That seems high. Since you have already double checked usage, that's a place to start. If the same stuff in VA pulled half the kwH, something is pulling current off your meter.
I'd look at the age of your systems to see if that's a contributing factor, but the other thing would be to invest in a home energy monitor that can tell you a bunch of information like which circuits are pulling what amounts and exactly when it's happening - however, if you arent comfortable around electric you might need to pay an electrician to set it up.
​
After that you can look at things like insulation, and leaks.

I can't speak for now, but like 20 years ago when I worked in Sheetz management it was an unspoken idea that they avoided cities and high population areas. It wasn't their target business. They preferred places where people went versus places where people lived. Which is an overly simplistic way of putting it.
They had concerns with land cost, taxes, logistics, and security that made them just avoid those areas and prefer other areas.

Reply to Want growth in Erie? Cut taxes on homes and jobs, hike taxes on land instead by ToffeeFever
LERTA only works to an extent. How often is the land sold? That's when you make the revenue. Say a developer buys the land. They pay the tax 1 time. In 10 years when they will start owing property tax, they will sell the property to the tenant and move on. If the tenant is smart, they too move on.
​
Meanwhile, what was built on that land? 5 warehouses? Cool none of them are paying a dime towards roads, schools, fire protection, none of it. It's still stuck on this idea that if you bring in businesses by promising low or no taxes that that is good for the communit, but it doesn't do anyone any good because the moment they are forced to start paying taxes they move somewhere else.

The asshole in me thinks the Hellers should go to that hunter's house and shoot his dog. If the cops ask, say"gosh I thought that dog that is twice the size of a normal coyote, and wearing a colored vest was a coyote."
Its fucking ignorant, and that guy shouldnt have guns if he cant tell the difference between a pet and a coyote.

Yeah ok, until the PSP needs to cover the second half of their budget.

Not really. Until democrats fill the empty seats no one controls it, but that’s also why they are clamoring for sessions. They want to jams some last minute things through before they lose their majority.

They dont want them on a general election ballot. They prefer them on off-year primary ballots when they can gin up their angry base to come out and vote their shit through like the pandemic amendments.

On the east side of the main stretch past the top of the hill (past gateway plaza going east on 30) there’s the entrance to the old turnpike which a lot of people hike, but it’s going to be cold as hell so I doubt that’s much help.

Well, regardless of the who, the who’s paying for it is taxpayers.
Paying for night shift is super expensive. Like raise your taxes expensive, and it’s too cold at night to do repairs.
So whatever it is needed done, and couldn’t wait till warmer weather.

So if this was money budgeted for them, and they had a bunch of extra money, then the party of spending less and cutting taxes shouldve budgeted less for themselves and passed a tax cuts. That is, unless they are a bunch of hypocrites.

Missed out on the state liquor lottery a few weeks back. Couldve gotten some Van Winkle for him, and if he's a whisky guy he's probably heard of that brand. However, it's not local. It's now bottled out of Buffalo Trace which is in KY.
