GRASS VALLEY, Calif. April 13, 2020 – The City of Grass Valley will continue the City Council’s public hearing for the Dorsey Marketplace project from April 14, 2020 to April 28, 2020.  This will allow the City time to refine the public hearing process which has been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.
