Dear Ms. Burgess, I have read with interest the letter dated September 19, 2013 to Community Leaders and Elected Officials regarding the proposed Con Ed. increases for electric, gas and steam. I note that these increases are for, inter alia, pension and healthcare costs. I object to this increase for these purposes. If Con Ed cannot afford to pay for its employees pension, then they should let them invest in 401K or a Roth IRA like most other companies. Further, I do not see why the consumers have to pay for the health care costs. I hope the above is taken into consideration when a decision is taken on the increase. Thank you. Marilyn Reda
