City to begin water project next week
The City of Friona is scheduled to begin construction October 22nd on a water improvement project utilizing a grant provided by the Texas Department of Agriculture. “Currently, the City has water lines that are undersized, resulting in insufficient water pressure and frequent maintenance issues,” says City Manager Lee Davila. “This project will install lines in order to provide adequate water pressure and prevent these maintenance issues in the future.” This project will benefit 393 persons, of which 77% are of low-to-moderate income. Construction will continue for the next 25 weeks. The completion date is scheduled for April 15, 2019. If anyone has any questions, they can contact the City’s Public Works Director, Salvador Garcia, at (806) 250-2761. (see map below)
