Natural gas for Lisbon Falls? Possible, if enough Lisbon citizens will take the time to contact the town office to indicate their interest.

It is a fact that natural gas is less expensive per heating unit than fuel oil. Think of all the money that could be saved on heating costs at the end of the year.

All that is necessary is for the people of Lisbon to express their interest to Lisbon’s town manager with a simple phone call or sign a petition at the town office. It is not too late.

The local oil delivery businesses will fight it, tooth and nail. Nonetheless, wouldn’t it be wonderful to have natural gas in the Lisbon area? Converting to natural gas is easy and it would pay for itself in a very short time.
