WL sees growth, plans to expand wastewater plant. Heads up: Fireworks Saturday at Ross-Ade. Celebrity softball at Loeb for Joyful Journey. WL Library prepping for grand re-opening. And more.
RE the wastewater plant piece. All this grown and expansion means more asphalt, concrete, and rooftops replacing natural/agricultural vegetation. We are planting the seeds for a heat island, and I see no official comment on how this is being mitigated. I doubt that it is. Planting a tree in a parking lot kinda doesn't count.

When it comes to water/wastewater in West Lafayette, the real question is can their residents afford it.
