State approves $69M in water infrastructure loans for Memphis, Johnson City, and Lebanon
Gov. Bill Lee and Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation Commissioner David Salyers announced three cities will received $69 million loans for water improvements through the Tennessee Local Development Authority.
Memphis will receive $48 million under the program, $15 million goes to Johnson City, and $5.7 million heads to Lebanon.
The Clean Water State Revolving Fund loan will address wastewater treatment plant improvements in Memphis and rehabilitation of sewer interceptors in Johnson City and Lebanon.
The state’s Clean Water State Revolving Fund Loan Program has awarded more than $2 billion in low-interest loans since 1987.

They gotta get their Christmas per diems first.
This is good government, especially for a Republican. I do like what I see more and more of Governor Lee, but I wish he wasn’t so right wing on many things.
I believe our roads are fine and any gas taxes should go for teacher raises and more free tuition opportunities.
