About Us

Springfield Utility Board (SUB) is a customer-owned community resource. Like other customer-owned utilities, SUB has a 3-pronged mission: to provide excellent customer service, to keep rates cost-effective and affordable, and to support the community it serves. SUB achieves this because, unlike privately held utilities which look to provide profits to investors, SUB is owned by and responsible to the people it serves – you! And, because SUB is an independent agency, and not a department of the city, all of the rates paid go directly back into operating the utility.
