(City of Newberg (Or.), 2007-06-21) Newberg (Or.); Brown and Caldwell
Demands on the sanitary collection system are expanding as Newberg’s population grows. Land use and population
have changed substantially since the preparation of the Sewerage Master Plan in 1985. Then, the City’s population was
approximately 12,000. Since then the City has experienced an average growth rate of approximately 2.6 percent with a
2007 population of over 21,000 people. This Sewerage Master Plan Update (SMPU) provides capital improvement and
maintenance program recommendations for improving sanitary collection system service and for addressing the future
needs of the system through the planning horizons of 2025 and 2040. [From the Plan]
