Residents of Mooar/Powdertown agreed to work with Regional Utility Service Systems (RUSS) several years ago.
RUSS helps rural communities in ten southeast Iowa counties secure state and/or federal funding for sanitary sewer systems.
The sewer project was put on hold, last year, during the engineering phase because of personnel and funding issues with RUSS.
The Lee County Board of Supervisors wanted to see if residents of Mooar/Powdertown were still interested in working with RUSS, so it held a public meeting Tuesday night.
