• Greenfield announces delay in mailing of second quarter sewer bills (mkesouth.com subscription) — Greenfield residents should know that second quarter sewer bills were mailed late, and the city won't charge any late fees until after September 9 to compensate. If your bill shows an August 26 due date, you effectively have extra time. Questions can be directed to Greenfield City Hall on West Forest Home Avenue.
