Final plans for the Whitehead Creek Stormwater Separation project will be unveiled to the public Thursday night.

The city will hold a public meeting and open house to reveal the final design and project information.

Once finished, the project will allow the city to separate storm and waste water. That separation could reduce the amount of water treated by two million gallons a day.

The project will put St Joseph in compliance with Missouri’s Department of Natural Resources requirements. Construction is set to begin later this year.

The public meeting starts at 5:30 Thursday night at the Fairview Golf Course Club House on Pacific Street.
