Water reuse project and FrontRunner station tours (work session)
Discussed
The council and Planning Commission members toured the Orem Water Reclamation Facility's water reuse project, led by Assistant Public Works Director Reed Price. The project will let the plant treat wastewater to Type I reuse levels for irrigation and use cloth filtration to remove phosphorus before release to Utah Lake. They also toured the FrontRunner station, where consultant Christie Oostema of People+Place discussed station area plan possibilities and a UTA regional general manager discussed expansion plans.
