"It's disappointing to see that Xcel ratepayers might have received many millions of dollars more in this land sale. It sure would have been nice to have that $65 million, especially when Xcel is asking to raise rates yet again." - CUB Executive Director Annie Levenson-Falk
$7.5 million of profits from Xcel's land sale was passed along to ratepayers - but the land was re-sold to Amazon for a whopping $73.5 million.
