When ahead and put the car on jack stands and next thing you know the ground caved in and the car fell with a loud bang, my mom came out screaming thinking the worst but thankfully I was in the back of the house getting something. I am thankful that I didn't get injured and that the car is fine but this is just beyond unacceptable that this company could have done just a cheap job!

The work done in this building is subpar. City council meetings can made you crazy. Walking through council members' offices makes one wonder how so many people can get so little accomplished. It is a bureaucracy. The space is perfect for the monthly art exhibits that tie in with Art Hop. Go take a look. You might even take in a city council meeting.

So we were just passing through. Reedley is a small town located in the Central Valley of…read moreCalifornia. Agriculture is king in these areas and the town is surrounded by farms, stockyards, etc. It had the usual expectations regarding fast food, and in looking at Yelp reviews there were plenty of interesting local eateries we would have checked out but we were on the clock as it were. Everybody we encountered was friendly.

I have had a love affair with Reedley since I was a little kid. My big sister got married and…read moremoved there to live on a dairy about the time I was born. So, we went to visit and would often go into town to shop. My mother bought a dress at one of the shops and I have a picture of her in that dress that is probably my favorite of all the pictures of my now deceased mom. There are even a few pictures of me as a small tike, wandering around the lawn of my sister's place. They are black and white photos with the crimped edges. Fast forward to now...my girlfriends and I enjoy driving to Reedley and having lunch downtown. Afterwards we wander in and out of shops downtown. Brings back good memories. Guess I should try to find a dress to buy and take some pictures.

I appreciate the great customer service, and wish more businesses had service like I received. Thanks again!

"If you "DON'T" like to garden then this is the town for you"!…read more Even with record rainfall this is what you'll pay for water and utilities here. THIS IS ONLY THE THIRD IN A SERIES OF FIVE RATE INCREASES. If you don't use any water AT ALL you will pay the fixed rate which is $20.74 and in the year 2020 that will increase to $23.51. Residential; Tier 1-(1-1000) $1.63, tier 2- (1001-3300) $2.25, tier 3- (3300) $3.69. In 2020 it will cost you; Tier 1- $1.93, tier 2- $2.60, tier 3- $4.22. Doesn't really look like a lot but for me to stop watering my yard cost me $95.78 in water alone. Let's not for get the sewer rates; $35.33 and in 2020 will increase to $42.75 Plus drainage $, refuse $ and street sweep $ . I have been passionate about gardening for over 22 years. I've shared plants with hundreds of people over the years now thanks to all the rate hikes I will no longer be able to share the beauty of my garden with others. The only words the City has for the people who love to share their passion for gardening is, "The more water you use the more you pay". MAKES ME SICK!!

The "contact" link does not work. We are landlords of several properties, and I pay bills on eighteen websites. Theirs is the most frustrating ever. To pop your check in the mail slot? Last time I did that there was this supposed "black home' between the bucket where the envelopes are picked up and the container the bucket sits in? My payment had the unfortunate fate of falling in between the two and I was dinged for a late charge because the checks never cleared. They sent the check back a few months later when they were discovered. No apology, no reversal of late charges. I could keep going on about the new garbage/compost system but if the mayor won't listen, who will? Pathetic way to run a city.
