The City of La Grange said it needs to improve its waste water treatment plant to support future development. However, city council members and residents are adamantly opposed to a sewer rate increase.
Councilman Joe Davenport explained that the city needs to increase rates in order to pay for expansion of the sewage treatment plant.  
This expansion would also include improving pump stations and upsizing pipe lines, said Roy Horton, chairman of the La Grange Utilities Board.
