Tuesday night’s Escalon City Council meeting could see a sizeable crowd turn out … since the main item on the agenda could pave the way for a sizeable increase in the city’s wastewater rates. Due to the observance of the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday on Monday, Jan. 18 – when city offices will be closed – the council meeting has been moved to Tuesday, Jan. 19. The top item on the agenda will be a public hearing on the proposed increases in the city’s wastewater (sewer) rates.
