When will we start construction?

The city is eligible for up to 85% grant in this project, at a savings of over $9 million.


Start of construction is delayed due to waiting for Economically Distressed Areas Program (EDAP) funding from the Texas Water Development Board (TWDB). Release of EDAP funding was delayed by the Texas Legislature during the 2017 legislative session.
