In the spring of 2018, the City Commission approved engineering services to Holloway, Updike and Bellen for a new water treatment plant. Plans and specs have been developed and are going through the final refining stage now.

In addition to plans for our new Water Plant we are in the process developing plans to loop our water system line for circulation of the water.

City administration has met with ODEQ and financial advisors to review the plans and proposed timeline which is outlined below.
