The Locust Grove City Council voted unanimously at its Sept. 7 regular meeting to approve an agreement with G. Ben Turnipseed Engineers, Inc. for upcoming work on the next major expansion of the Indian Creek Water Pollution Control Plant located at 1116 Locust Road.

Based on population projections in the early 2000s of the city eventually being in the 17,000-to-37,000 range, the plan for the water plant has been to expand from its original 1.5 million gallons per day to three million, and then to double that again to as much as six million gallons per day.
