Peel MHK Tim Crookall says he’s hopeful new plans for a sewage treatment works in the town won’t be as controversial as previous proposals.
Commissioners have met Mr Crookall and Water Authority officials to discuss proposals, which are still in their early stages.

Mr Crookall says dialogue will continue and the public will eventually have their say:
