Planning Comments:

2024 Note: The System has completed a significant upgrade of the WWTP and collection lift stations.  The improvements are showing positive effects on discharges and overall treatment.

2025 Note: They are waiting on funding to install a camera to inspect the lines. They continue to seek funding to rerate and rehab their current facility. this is necessary to remove the Tap On Ban.

Survey Comments:

2/17/2023 - MR- City using cleaner water for additional repairs to system, pumps, infiltration remediation, etc..  Findings from past still require quarterly reporting which is a burden and hope this resolves those issues. Note that Ord from 9/1/2020 support raising rates annually to maintain system.

4/19/2021 - AW /MR-The City has recently completed a significant WWTP upgrade project and collection system lift station upgrade that is showing improved treatment and allowing the City to better monitor system flow.
