REQUEST: $200,000

What is this Project?

This project requests $200,000 to evaluate the feasibility and requirements for extending existing County water infrastructure to serve small-scale applications.  

These may include individual residential properties, clusters of homes, or neighborhoods not currently connected to the County water system. The reports will assess potential alignments, capacity, and service options in accordance with County policies and design standards. 

What will 2026 Capital Outlay Request do? 

Upfront costs often deter small-scale applications, since they have to spend money before knowing whether the line extension is feasible.  The 2026 Capital Outlay Request will provide public funding for such preliminary work, so as to remove a barrier to existing residents pursue connections to the County’s public water utility.
