Lockwood Plans Phase 3 Sewer

The Lockwood Water and Sewer District will hold a public Hearing on March 9 to set boundaries for a proposed third phase of its sewer system. The project is confronted with rising material costs that could push its cost to $23 million, but district board members hope grants will help offset some costs. Several subdivision developers have expressed interest and those developments would help offset the cost for each tax code. Construction would begin in 2024, if fewer than half of the 800 property owners fail to protest it.
