Wastewater treatment facility improvements as well as the August 19, 1991 Page 4 Unfinished Business - continued construction of the lagoon were studied to determine the best way to address higher wastewater treatment limits at the sewer facility as industrial development in the northeast area of the community increased. The agreement states that IBP will be responsible for paying $500,000 of the lagoon's cost with the city paying $2.5 million. John Meyer, Public Works Director, stressed that this project will delay the need for improvements at the sewage treatment facility, but that over 60 percent of the existing plant is 50 years or older and in need of repair.
