As part of state requirements in such a sale, residents of Butler and East Butler, as well as Butler, Oakland, Summit, Connoquenessing and Center townships have until March 2 to view the sale plan and submit a written comment.
The plan, known as the Pennsylvania Sewage Facilities Act, or Act 537, can be viewed during business hours in the city, township or borough offices of those seven municipalities.
