This 194-50 plan was never executed. A November 1, 1957 Commercial Record newspaper clipping (below) includes a plea by Saugatuck Village President Richard Hoffman for the community to fund a sewage disposal project and states "A few years back the village voted on the proposition of putting in a system for that part of town east of the river. This was turned down." In 1976, the Clean Water Act compelled the city stop dumping untreated waste water into the Kalamazoo River and spurred the establishment of the Kalamazoo Lake Sewer and Water Authority (KLSWA).
