From the meeting
On October 26, 2026, Council considered a budget ordinance to account for an additional $3,820,315 from the SC Infrastructure Investment Program for the new water treatment plant. Finance Director Kymberley Rooks said the South Carolina Rural Infrastructure Authority awarded the funds on October 1, 2026, and the money would be applied to the 2024A bond principal. The city had previously received $10 million for the same project.
This was grant funding tied directly to the water plant buildout and debt repayment.

Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
