Grandpa's Water Assessment Bill

This is pretty self-explanatory.  It is an assessment for the water district.  What I find interesting about it is that there are two bills and each one is an assessment for two lots.  Aha, I think I got it.  Grandpa and Grandma owned two pieces of property in Reedley.  I assume each lot was actually two lots.  Oh, never mind.  What you might like to know is that they lived on Kleinsasser Avenue.  Kleinsasser is a find Mennonite name.  However, I guess they got tired of the hassle of the long name and the street is now called Klein Avenue.  I've always sort of resented that they did that, but then I don't know anything about why they did it.  By the way, I have the envelope this came in.  The stamp was four cents.
