A new sewer district encompassing the Flat Creek Inn and the Elk Refuge Inn on North Highway 89 was approved by the Board of County Commissioners on Tuesday, Aug. 13. The Elk Refuge Sewer District’s goal is to build a system that connects the two Inns to the Town of Jackson’s sewer system and was one of the potential future sewer districts identified in the recently approved Water Quality Management Plan to combat water quality issues in the region.
