This brings Northern Township to a total of $6 Million in grants towards the Lake Bemidji wastewater project. By securing funding for this project, Northern Township can address vital infrastructure needs, safeguard a precious MN state natural resource, and support the region’s economic and recreational interests, all while realizing significant cost savings through strategic coordination with county construction plans.
The proposed sewer project will provide a long-term solution by connecting several key facilities, including Ruttger’s Birchmont Lodge resort, the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Regional Headquarters, and Lake Bemidji State Park, to a reliable sanitary sewer system. This initiative will help protect Lake Bemidji from future degradation and ensure its preservation for generations to come.
