Negotiations over the MCI Concord wastewater treatment plant were extended through August 2026.

The wastewater plant may need about $25 million to restore its original capacity, while the Town is also studying a lower-cost way to add treatment capacity for both MCI Concord redevelopment and other development in Concord. The current additional-capacity charge is $44 per gallon, compared with a preliminary estimated actual cost of about $100 per gallon. No final expansion or fee decision was reported; the board also voted unanimously to enter a closed session about real-property negotiations.
