Committee discusses water-line project and possible $15,000 private contribution match

Aug 28, 2026

Members heard that a private contributor, Kenneth McMahan, may provide $15,000 toward a JE Sarton Road water project; the committee discussed matching that contribution and noted full-county-commission action will be required for funding and that 6-inch pipe would raise project costs into the low-to-mid tens of thousands.

Committee members discussed that the project was originally scoped for 4-inch pipe but that extending the work with 6-inch pipe would raise costs into the "sixties" of thousands of dollars.
