The Pineville City Council will be asked at its meeting this evening to adopt a resolution of intent to spend up to $10 million on the city waterworks and sewer systems.

Financing will be with bonds issued through the Local Government Environmental Facilities and Community Development Authority of the State Bond Commission.

The funds will be used for constructing and acquiring improvements, extensions and replacements to the systems.

The Authority was created by legislative act in 1991 to facilitate entities’ need to raise significant capital. More than $20 billion has been realized since then.

In other matters the council intends to call a public hearing and special meeting for noon June 28 for adoption of the 2024-25 budget.
