📰 News we're reading

• County Backs Funding Plan for Major Sewer Project (territorialdispatch.com) — Wheatland’s aging wastewater system is set for a major overhaul through a regional sewer project that would link the city to Olivehurst’s treatment plant, backed by a proposed $10 million county loan. County leaders warn that without this deal, Wheatland residents could face sky-high sewer bills and stalled growth, including the planned sports and entertainment zone near Hard Rock and Toyota Amphitheatre.
   

• SJS Baseball Recap: Wheatland and Sutter are Lone Area Squads Still Standing (wheatlandsun.com) — Wheatland High’s Pirates baseball team has surged into the Sac-Joaquin Section Division V semifinals, hosting Escalon in a three-game series for a shot at the program’s first section final. Strong pitching from underclassmen and timely hitting powered extra-inning and mercy-rule wins, while other nearby schools like Yuba City, Marysville, and Sutter saw mixed playoff results.
