At the end of this topic is a double asterisk (**) that includes these 2 sentences:
"Each month the adjustment will fluctuate based on the actual cost of gas and the projected cost of gas from the previous month. The adjustment could be higher or lower than the value represented in this example."
So - the price of natural gas goes up and down, and will be adjusted each month - if the price should go high at some point, we will pay it. Right now the price is low, and for the forseeable future will be. If at some point natural gas becomes more expensive we will pay the price, even if it is more than what people are currently paying.
That said, paying what natural gas actually costs sounds reasonable.

I think this is a good idea especially since other utility rates will probably go up soon. It is refreshing to know rates can go down rather then always going up.

If as is stated " the system is in 'good repair' & no major work is in the foreseeable future".. I do believe that a reduction in the fees charged for gas to the county is appropriate. Thanks for soliciting this input.
