The Wastewater and Public Works Engineering Divisions planned for an approximate 9,000-foot sewer extension west along Stolley Park Road in between Engleman Road and Freedom Drive; and along Engleman Road in between Stolley Park Road and US Highway 30.  This sewer extension will potentially serve over three hundred (300) properties and eliminate septic tanks in the area as well as a large lagoon.

On April 11, 2017 City Council approved the Creation of  Sanitary Sewer District No. 540T; West US Highway 30 and Engleman Road / West Park Plaza Sanitary Sewer Extension.

This tap district has the ability to serve areas that are yet to be developed, which is anticipated to change with the US Highway 30 realignment project.  Sewer became available to approximately 250 properties that did not have access; the majority of these properties are within the West Park Plaza Mobile Home Park.
