Harnett Regional Water seeks MOU with Cumberland County for future Irwin treatment plant
Summary
Harnett Regional Water asked the Board of Commissioners to approve a memorandum of understanding with Cumberland County that would provide water from a future treatment plant to be built in Irwin; no formal approval was recorded in the transcript.
Harnett Regional Water asked the Harnett County Board of Commissioners on Oct. 6 to approve a memorandum of understanding with Cumberland County to supply water from a future treatment plant planned for Irwin.
Caitlin, a county staff member who opened the meeting recap, told the board, "Harnett Regional Water requests that the board approve a memorandum of understanding with Cumberland County to provide water from the future water treatment plant to be constructed in Irwin." The request was listed among several departmental items presented to the board.
The memo cited in the meeting summary was dated Aug. 21, 2025. The transcript does not record a motion, vote tally, or whether the board approved the measure at the Oct. 6 meeting.
If approved in a future action, the MOU would formalize intercounty provision of treated water from the Irwin facility to Cumberland County. The transcript does not state a timeline for construction, cost estimates, or contingencies tied to state or federal approvals.
The request was presented as part of a batch of administration items; the county staff member asked members to take up the MOU along with other departmental requests, but the record provided does not show a final vote on this item.
