(Seguin) City of Seguin utility customers should not experience major changes in their utility bills over the next month. Seguin City Manager Steve Parker made that announcement during Tuesday night’s meeting of the Seguin City Council.

There’s been a limited supply and there’s just not enough to begin to provide vaccinations for those in Tier 1B, which includes those over the age of 65 or those over the age of 16 who have a underlying medical condition.
