Economic Development
The current treatment plant is over capacity, and cannot support continued economic (and residential) growth. Industrial and commercial users contribute large loads to our treatment plant, but also provide our community with jobs and other economic benefits. We are working closely with our industrial and commercial users to ensure that upgrades to the treatment plant meet their needs.
