What the opinion from the PA Superior Court really means:

The opinion of November 7, 2019 affirms the Lower Court’s refusal to enter an injunction regarding Lehigh County Authority’s (LCA) proposed switch to monthly rates for all ratepayers. This only means that LCA may impose the Fixed Rate for monthly billing while the City and LCA are still negotiating the issue. LCA assured the Court that they would be able to return the fixed charges to the ratepayers if LCA lost the case. This doesn’t mean that the Court has decided that LCA has the right to impose monthly billing. The City and LCA are actively working to resolve the issue.
