In a recent government meeting, officials discussed significant improvements in water quality following the installation of a treatment plant in Glen Allen. Residents have reported a remarkable enhancement in water clarity and safety, with one official likening the water quality to that of a swimming pool, free from the dark, murky appearance previously experienced. The treatment plant, which has been operational for some time, is now extending its services towards Avon, with plans for a new facility between Greenville and Leland.
The discussion also touched on ongoing infrastructure projects, including road improvements on Highway 82 and various local streets. While there was general agreement on the proposed projects, concerns were raised about the delays in addressing specific areas, particularly Anita Anne Drive. Officials emphasized the importance of prioritizing existing commitments before moving forward with new projects.
The meeting concluded with a motion to proceed with the discussed road improvements, which was met with unanimous support, reflecting a collaborative effort to enhance both water quality and local infrastructure.
