In honor of Women's History Month, we want to share the story of Forest Gafner, a Leucadia resident and realtor who was instrumental in forming the Leucadia Wastewater District in 1959. Ms. Gafner served on the first Board of Directors, and helped to bring safe treatment and disposal of wastewater to the area, which had previously relied on septic tanks. The District’s water reclamation plant is named the Forest R. Gafner Water Reclamation Facility in her honor. #WomensHistoryMonth
