| State
Senator Tony Guglielmo, R-Stafford, today announced that the
State Bond Commission is expected to approve funding the amount
of $4,686,538 to the Town of Coventry for the expansion of
the town’s sewer system to include the area around Coventry
Lake. According to Sen. Guglielmo, the expansion is necessary
due to the failure of current septic systems in the Coventry
Lake area.
“It’s
been a long time coming so this is certainly good news for
the residents of Coventry,” said Sen. Guglielmo. “The
urgency to begin a project like this is heightened anytime
you are dealing with a potential environmental hazard. With
this funding the next step can now begin.”
According to
Sen. Guglielmo the expansion will be limited to existing
developed lots. “For the Bond Commission to release
the funding at this time shows just how important this project
really is.”
The
State Bond Commission’s monthly meeting will be held
tomorrow, May 30th, at 10:30 a.m., at the Legislative Office
Building in Hartford. |
