Evansville Area Plan Commission Denies Rezoning for Proposed Septic Disposal Facility
FLOW CONTROL
The Evansville Area Plan Commission denied TSF's request to rezone land near Skylane Airport for a septic disposal facility. Community opposition centered on the site's location in a flood zone, raising concerns about environmental safety.
The current agricultural zoning prohibits the construction of a septic tank and pumping station. As the Evansville Water & Sewer Utility plans to stop accepting raw septic waste in July, TSF argues the facility is necessary to continue services. The Vanderburgh County Board can overrule the commission's decision, with their next meeting scheduled for February 24.
