Summary

Mayor Roy West said the city will invest over $74 million in water and sewer improvements in 2025 and is working with Johns Hopkins University on system improvements through a Bloomberg Philanthropies grant.

Mayor Roy West said the city plans a major investment in utility infrastructure next year, describing a 2025 water and sewer program and outside partnerships.

"In 2025 alone, we'll invest over $74,000,000 in water and sewer improvements," Mayor Roy West said, calling the work part of an aggressive initiative to address aging infrastructure. He added the city is "working with John Hopkins University to improve our water and sewer delivery system through a grant from Bloomberg Philanthropy."

West did not provide a project-by-project breakdown, procurement plan, or the total municipal or matched funding beyond the $74 million figure.
