The Goodrich City Council discussed utility rates, an Easter celebration and city growth in the regular meeting for February Thursday night at the community center.

A discussion over water and sewer rates ended in the decision to confer with nearby cities to get a better idea of the current rates. Goodrich has not increased its rates in years and council feels as though a hike is necessary to match expenses. The first 100 gallons is now $32.50.

The annual Easter egg hunt has been tentatively scheduled for Saturday, April 16 at 2 p.m. This year, Easter falls on the next day. As of now, the plan is to hold the hunt at the Goodrich ISD track, just as in 2021, with a total of 5,000 eggs for the youth to pursue.
