BV SCHOOLS UPDATE
The City of Brandon has completed the construction of its new Water Tower. The tower stands 170 feet tall and contains up to 1.25 million gallons of water.
NEW WATER TOWER
On May 2, 2022, the Brandon City Council voted unanimously to move forward with a water treatment plant expansion project to meet the City's future needs. The reverse osmosis water treatment system will double the capacity of the plant from 2,000 gallons per minute (gpm) to 4,000 gpm. The system will also reduce the hardness of the City's water from approximately 24 grains of hardness down to 12 grains. The expansion is projected to meet the water quality needs of Brandon until 2070.

IRONWOOD STREET EXTENSION
Extending Ironwood Street will open new development as well as provide a second entrance into Aspen Park. This area has been surveyed, initial project details such as utilities, street, and sidewalk have been discussed, and cost estimates have been created.
The Rushmore Area Reconstruction Phase 3 project is a roadway reconstruction project that will add new water/sewer lines, stormwater retention basins, sidewalks, and LED street lighting to the central part of the City. This project demonstrates that not only is the City committed to sustainable expansion, but it is also willing to invest in and support its existing neighborhoods and residents.
RUSHMORE AREA PHASE 3
A diverging diamond interchange including traffic signals is slated for construction to start in 2023. Most likely, this will be a 2-3 year construction project. It includes replacing the railroad bridge along I-90 to the west as well as drainage upgrades to Splitrock Boulevard. A centerline median is proposed from the interchange to Ash Street as well as the removal/relocation of many access locations between the interchange and Redwood Boulevard.
