The City of Battle Creek and nearby governments say they’ve resolved their differences over use of the sewer system. Several townships and the City of Springfield connect to Battle Creek sewers.
A long-term contract between the parties expired six years ago. Negotiations for a new agreement have been in the works ever since.
The Battle Creek-area governments say they’ve now reached a plan everyone can agree to. The proposal still has to go before the sewer users’ municipal boards. If passed, it’ll be good for 15 years.
