Squabbles continue over proposed sewage plant location in Wimberley

Debate over Wimberley’s wastewater issues continued this week as parties on all sides squabbled about the location of proposed treatment facilities.

While proponents of an Aqua Texas-operated wastewater facility worry that a city-owned plant would be built in Blue Hole Regional Park, those who back the latter plan refute those claims, citing documents that prohibit such a move.

Supporters of the Aqua Texas wastewater facility have advocated against a wastewater plant in the middle of the park believing that it could deter tourism and create a bad smell.
