CITY OF RITZVILLE

NOTICE OF PUBLIC MEETING AND 30-DAY PUBLIC COMMENT PERIOD

DRAFT GENERAL SEWER PLAN

​

The City of Ritzville has prepared a draft General Sewer Plan (GSP) for the City's wastewater collection and treatment system, using funding from the Washington State Department of Ecology (Ecology) Clean Water State Revolving Fund — supported in part by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) — supplemented by the City's Sewer Utility funds. In accordance with Ecology funding guidelines and the State Environmental Review Process (SERP), the City is holding a public meeting to give the community an opportunity to learn more about the draft GSP, the alternatives that were considered and why the preferred alternative was selected, and any potential impacts — including environmental impacts and proposed mitigation, any real estate or land acquisition needs, and potential impacts to existing sewer utility rates. Opportunity will be provided for the public to ask questions and provide comment on the draft GSP.

​

Time: 7:00 PM (held during the regular Ritzville City Council meeting)
