DALLAS — The Texas Water Development Board will provide $46 million in bonds to the Upper Trinity Regional Water District to double the capacity of a water treatment plant that serves the booming communities near U.S. Highway 380 in eastern Denton County.
“This provides financial assistance to expand the Riverbend Water Reclamation Plant,” said Thomas E. Taylor, executive director of the Upper Trinity Water district. “It will allow us to double the present [treatment] capacity of 2 million gallons a day and will enable us to have adequate capacity for the next three to five years.”
That provides room to grow in places like Aubrey, Paloma Creek, Providence Village and Savannah, Taylor said. One new development, Hillwood Communities’ 2,400-home Union Park in Little Elm, has already contracted with the water district to provide treated effluent for its landscaping needs.
“This is high-class, high-quality treated effluent, but it’s cheaper and more efficient than using drinking water,” Taylor said. “It’s perfect for landscaping.”
