Regional Wastewater Plant Plans Face Public Scrutiny
A Frederick County public meeting at 7 30 p m will discuss a five year drafting regional wastewater plant project projected to cost 26 million dollars for Winchester and Frederick County. The plan, from Alexander Potter Associates, would build a three mile interceptor to a new plant near Route 7 and Opequon Creek. Local share is 25 percent of design costs with 75 percent funded by federal programs, possible 50 percent rise in water sewer bills, and potential impact on future development. Public officials have shown limited support and questions loom about timing and cost shares.
