Called Meeting
The primary discussion centered on Agenda Item 1: the Georgia Environmental Finance Authority (GEFA) Lead Service Line Inventory Loan Grant. The Utility Commission considered executing a loan application for $150,000, which is potentially forgivable if fully drawn down, carrying a 0% interest rate. The funds are designated to finance the inventory of lead and copper service lines from water mains to customer buildings, determining material type, and scheduling replacements. The resolution authorizing the loan application and designating the Chairman and General Manager as authorized signers was introduced, read, and adopted. The overall project timeline for the inventory is anticipated to run through 2025. Preparations for public notification regarding the work and the involvement of ESG Engineering were also mentioned.
