Fort Smith Extends Sewer Deadline to 2038 | Little Rock News

Fort Smith just won a major extension on its federal sewer cleanup deadline, pushing completion from 2027 to 2038 after decades of untreated sewage dumping into the Arkansas River. Originally projected at $480 million, the project now costs an estimated $800 million — with the city already raising rates, passing bonds, and securing sales tax extensions to fund it. A 2019 flood and pandemic delays added to the challenges, but the new timeline gives officials room to prioritize critical repairs without bankrupting residents.

He insulted figures like Schiff, AOC, and Christie, mocked their looks, and even declared, “I hate some people”—a jarring statement for anyone, especially a self-described Christian. While he got applause for thanking Secret Service and law enforcement, the crowd’s reaction was lukewarm at best. The event felt less like a dinner and more like a rally, raising questions about whether name-calling builds bridges—or just walls.
