Milliken Chapel Road residents ask Simpson County for help after $150,000 water-line quote
Summary
Residents on Milliken Chapel Road asked Fiscal Court for assistance after the Water District quoted $150,000 to install a four-inch water line; Judge Barnes said he would consult the Water District general manager and seek other resources.
Residents Chip Willingham and Paul Zimmerman appeared before the Simpson County Fiscal Court to request assistance installing a four-inch water line on Milliken Chapel Road after receiving a $150,000 quote from the Simpson County Water District.
The minutes state the Water District provided a quote of $150,000 for the project and suggested the residents bring the request to Fiscal Court. County Judge-Executive Mason Barnes said he would speak with Simpson County Water District General Manager Jacob Cuarta and explore other resources or avenues to support the project.
Why it matters: A $150,000 infrastructure cost is substantial for residents on a single road; the court’s willingness to consult the Water District and look for funding avenues is the first step toward identifying possible county or partner support.
