Description/History
Currently the 16-inch water line on S Main St ends 1800 feet from Lonestar Rd. System pressures have historically been low in this area.
Justification
Connecting both segments of 16-inch water line will allow the system to increase pressure for this area. This will also create a loop system that will give two different points of distribution.
