Gridley
In an effort to promote growth in the community, the Gridley City Council discussed the possibility of free water and sewer hookups during its monthly meeting on March 5 at Gridley City Hall. Mayor Larry Kelley presented the council with a possible hookup package for utilities to assist new businesses and to promote residential growth. A full council discussed the option and agreed they would like to do everything they can to promote growth and welcome new residents to the community. However, wording of the policy and cost feasibility of the policy kept the council from adopting the policy at this time.
