Carbondale CCB cautions sewer plan may lower property values
The Southern Indian Carbondale's Community Conservation Board urges caution as Carbondale considers expanding the northeast sewer plant. Officials warn lagoons and new facilities could depress property values, even as urban renewal aims to boost the area. The board plans to discuss at an informational meeting Monday and prepares policy guidelines for owners and tenants affected by urban renewal, subject to HUD approval.
