Cranberry Township will move forward with a major project with no changes, but supervisors are still deciding how to fill funding gaps.
Cranberry Township supervisors have approved a contract for the $42 million update to the Brush Creek Treatment Plant. According to officials with the township, the bid came in higher than expected due to looming increases in construction cost.
A decision on how to fill the $6 million funding gap has not been decided, but a township official said waiting to complete the project would have seen costs go up.
A possible funding option for the project could include taking a larger loan interest loan. No official decision has been made and the evaluation process of options are ongoing.
