CLUTE — City Council had a short agenda, but still managed to adopt multiple resolutions.

City residents will see an increase in the cost of their solid waste bag rolls $1 each to $8.50 under Clute’s master fee schedule, approved during council’s meeting Thursday. Their recycling rolls will increase from $4.75 to $6.
