Council returns to Pine Ridge sewage debate

Posted on July 11, 2014

Mayor Daryll Gunter has sparked a renewed debate over the controversial $14.95 per month sewer maintenance fee which the city has levied on approximately 167 residents in the Pine Ridge subdivision for the past seven years. On Tuesday he asked the Perry City Council to do away with the charge once and for all.
