The Marion Township sewer project is another step closer to beginning.
Earlier this week, Butler County Commissioners awarded a number of bids for the project.
Bids were awarded for the installation of grinder pumps, excavating, electric, and the building of the sewer plant.
The total amount awarded was just over $4.2 million.
County officials say pre-construction meetings will take place in February or early March. They hope to break ground on the project as soon as weather permits.
