How we got here
Following a joint effort between Montgomery County and the city in 2023, $21 million in American Rescue Plan Act funds were allocated to bring in new water and sewer infrastructure in the unincorporated community of Tamina. An additional $550,000 was allocated by the city to fund additional grant efforts, as previously reported by Community Impact.
At the July meeting, the council unanimously approved a $7.3 million contract to go to SC2 Sequeria Civil Construction BD and Phoenix Fabricators and Erectors Inc. at $2.31 million for the construction of Water Plant No. 5, according to the previous coverage by Community Impact.
What’s next
The city will decide on the contracts during the Dec. 13 meeting for the western area of the ongoing project.
