Statesville reports $23 million waterline project about halfway complete
Summary
City Manager Ron updated the council on a roughly $23 million waterline project (from the plant toward Iredell Memorial Gardens), saying the multi-step work is about 53% complete and that DEQ pressure testing and staged repaving are required.
The city manager told the council the large waterline project that runs from the treatment plant to the Iredell Memorial Gardens area is roughly a $23,000,000 undertaking and is currently about 53% complete. He described the multi-step process — installing the main line, tying in feeder lines after DEQ pressure testing, then repaving — and cautioned that weather has delayed progress and paving.
Ron said crews have finished paving on Brookdale and will soon move to Stockton Street, then to South Meeting Street and US 21. He acknowledged the process is slow but necessary to ensure DEQ-required pressure testing and proper tie-ins before final surface work.
Council members asked for timing details for Stockton Street; Ron said the storm delayed the schedule and offered to provide more detailed timing to council members after the meeting.
