(Richmond, IN)--For the second time in as many meetings, Richmond Common Council on Tuesday night tabled a vote a proposed sewer rate increase.  The issue was still on public hearing.  Wayne County Commissioner Jeff Plasterer expressed support to help expand the Midwest Industrial Park.  "We need additional capacity, which, hopefully, will drive additional revenue through tax increment financing," Plasterer said.  Council member Gary Turner touched on the justification of previous increases, which have supported $105 million in improvements.  "The reasons that we had those projects were primarily to comply with the EPA or face lawsuits," Turner explained.  Several southside residents Tuesday night expressed concern over drainage issues.  Tuesday night’s decision to table the issue for further study was unanimous.  No time frame was discussed for the proposed increase to go back before council.
