Columbia Secures $349K Grant for Wastewater Treatment Upgrade
The City of Columbia has received a $349,000 Community Development Block Grant to support a $698,000 wastewater treatment project. The funding will facilitate the installation of generators and the rehabilitation of lift stations, with work expected to commence within six months.

Columbia will undertake a wastewater treatment project costing $698,000, funded by a $349,000 CDBG and an equal amount in city matching funds. The project includes installing permanent generators at both the north and south lagoons, along with the rehabilitation of two lift stations.
Work is projected to start within six months and will last approximately one year. The city has allocated funds in advance to ensure the project proceeds without disruption to residents. Successful completion may enhance the reliability of the wastewater system and improve overall service quality.
