In October 2024, the City solicited Statements of Qualifications from qualified entities for designing, building, operating and maintaining (DBOM) the new wastewater treatment facility, the first step of a two-step procurement. Later this spring, the City intends to issue a Request for Proposals (RFP, step two) which will include pricing for designing and constructing the new facility as well as long term operations and maintenance.

Once a firm is selected, the project team plans to hold a meeting to share the final designs with the community and continue land use permitting. Demolition and preliminary construction are expected to start in 2026.
