County hears update on West Weaver treated-water project; $400 million estimate and construction planned next year
Summary
Staff said 30% design for the West Weaver treated-water project will be complete next month, 60% by fall, and construction is expected to start in roughly a year; presenters cited a $400 million project and an estimated treated-water capacity of 10 million gallons per day.
County commissioners received a brief status update Jan. 27 on the West Weaver treated-water project.
A county presenter said the project team expects to finish 30% design by next month and reach 60% design by September or October, with construction planned to start roughly a year from the briefing. The presenter described the project as a roughly $400 million capital undertaking and said the system is being designed to produce an estimated 10,000,000 gallons per day of treated water.
Why it matters: County staff framed the West Weaver project as a major regional water and treatment investment that will support growth in the western part of the county and relieve water constraints as development proceeds.
Next steps: Staff will continue design work and return with schedule updates and milestones for permitting and procurement. No formal action or funding allocation was taken during the work session; the item was an informational update.
