A Water and Sewer Advisory Council is a requirement of the 2002 Mud Creek Sewer District Purchase and Interlocal Cooperation and Settlement Agreement with Henderson County. Because the previous Council had not met since 2004, the Water and Sewer Advisory Council was reformed in 2017 by the City of Hendersonville City Council to seek the advice and recommendations and to involve the business community in decisions that affect them to help prevent unintended consequences from decisions made by the Council. The City of Hendersonville retains authority over how the system grows but seeks input from other entities.
