SULLIVAN, N.Y. — The Town of Sullivan was recently awarded a New York State Water Infrastructure Improvement Act (WIIA) grant, totaling $3,576,000 to fund the Whitelaw Water District.
The Whitelaw Water District will serve properties along Whitelaw Road, Pine Ridge Road, Gee Road, Clark Road, Eddy Road, and Waterbury Road, according to a Dec. 13 news release from Town of Sullivan Supervisor John M. Becker. The Sullivan town board approved the Whitelaw Water District on June 1, 2022.
Gov. Kathy Hochul on Dec. 12 announced the Whitelaw Water District is among the projects awarded more than $479 million in grants for critical water infrastructure across the state.
“If it was not for the hard work of Barton & Loguidice, Comptroller Beth Ellis, as well as the Town of Sullivan Town Board, this project may have never happened,” Becker said in the release. “This grant combined with a $1 million earmark from Congressman Brandon Williams, makes this project that much closer to reality. I am proud of the hard work everyone did to provide our residents with access to safe public water.”
The water-infrastructure project is set to get underway in 2025, Becker added.
Nearly 15,000 people reside in the town of Sullivan, according to the latest U.S. Census Bureau estimates. The town is located in the northwestern corner of Madison County.
