The Town Board of the Town of Darien has filed an application for grant and loan assistance with USDA Rural Development for a Water District #6.
This application has been accepted and has been moved to the funding process. The total cost of the project is estimated at $24,880,000. The Town anticipates receiving a grant of approximately $6,800,000 and the balance in the form of a low-interest loan from the USDA Rural Development Agency.
The project will involve:
The installation of approximately 375,000 linear feet of water main along all Town roadways not currently provided with public water service;
The erection of a 300,000-gallon water storage tank, and a 500,000-gallon storage tank;
The installation of a pumping station;
and the upgrading an existing pumping station.
The project will serve 776 residential households within the Town. Consistent with Town Law and the procedures of Rural Development, the Darien Town Board will conduct public information meetings prior to making a commitment to undertake the proposed project.
Due to anticipated large attendance, the Public Information Meetings will be held at the Darien Fire Department at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, Sept. 28 and at 10 a.m. on Saturday, Oct. 1.
