State Representative Barb Gleim of Cumberland has announced that the Newville Water and Sewer Authority will receive $848,250 in funding through the Local Share Account (LSA) program. The funding aims to enhance infrastructure in response to growing community needs.
"I advocated strongly for this funding, which was also supported by Senator Rothman, in order to ensure safe and efficient service by the authority to its customers," said Gleim. She emphasized the importance of such grant programs in addressing financial challenges faced by local infrastructure projects. "Our local communities continue to grow, and our infrastructure is often not able to keep pace due to financial challenges. Grant programs, like the LSA, provide the funding needed for critical community projects to be completed."
The allocated funds will support the construction of a water tank and booster upgrades in West Pennsboro Township. The LSA program covers construction, engineering, and administrative expenses. It is funded through the PA Race Horse Development and Gaming Act rather than taxpayer money.
