City tells Paradise ISD to expect regional wastewater, annexation and road coordination as area grows
Summary
The City of Paradise briefed the board on rapid regional growth and potential groundwater shortages that are driving planning for surface water, a regional wastewater plant, and coordinated road and utility improvements near school facilities.
City officials gave the Paradise ISD board an update on regional growth and infrastructure planning on Dec. 8, stressing the need for coordination as Wise County develops.
The city representative said rapid population growth, extensive Municipal Utility District (MUD) development, and projected groundwater shortages are prompting cities to explore surface-water supplies and regional wastewater solutions. The update described possible annexation and a regional wastewater plant, and invited district representation on the city's comprehensive plan committee.
Board members were told specific coordination points include potential roadway improvements near school facilities, utility alignment related to the new high school, and opportunities to transition district wastewater infrastructure in the future. The briefing was informational; no board action was taken.
