12/12/2017
The Texas Water Development Board (TWDB) has approved financial assistance in the amount of $2 million, consisting of a $1 million loan and $1 million in loan forgiveness, from the Drinking Water State Revolving Fund to the city of Gorman. The city will use the assistance to finance construction costs associated with water system improvements.
With the funding, the city will replace approximately 25,000 linear feet of piping and replace existing water meters with electronic readers to help reduce water loss within the system.
The TWDB administers cost-effective financial assistance programs for the construction of water supply, wastewater treatment, flood control, and agricultural water conservation projects.
