Brewer has kept PUD rates fair for everyone

As I follow this campaign for the Grant County PUD (GCPUD) Commissioners, I am more convinced than ever it is important to keep someone with Terry Brewer’s knowledge, experience, commitment and passion on the GCPUD Commission. His service to the people in Grant County as Executive Director of the Grant County Economic Development Council and as GCPUD Commissioner has created a stable and strong economy for the people in Grant County.
