On Monday, February 24th, at 6:00 PM, residents of Clifton are invited to attend a public meeting at the Clifton Campus of Columbia State Community College, situated at 795 Main Street. This gathering aims to provide valuable information regarding the City of Clifton’s proposal to secure a loan amounting to $15,903,809 from the Drinking Water State Revolving Fund. The primary focus of the meeting will be to discuss the construction of a new water treatment facility and the potential implications this project may have on the monthly water rates for residents.
An important aspect of this funding request is that 31% of the total loan amount will be forgiven, meaning that portion will not require repayment. This detail is crucial for residents to understand as it may alleviate some financial concerns associated with the project. For those who have questions prior to the meeting, Doug Kibbey can be reached at 931-676-3370 or via email at [email protected]. This is an opportunity for community members to engage with city officials and gain insights into the future of Clifton’s water infrastructure.
