The City of Menlo is looking to apply for a grant and use available state-backed, low-interest loans to rehabilitate the city’s water system. Mayor Allen Keen told the Summerville News last week that the city will be working on getting the well on McWhorter Road back up and running. The mayor says that well can supply the city with plenty of water, and eliminate the need for purchasing water from the Chattooga County Water District. Keen says that he is working with the Georgia Environmental Finance Authority for the funding needed to do the needed work. The well on McWhorter Road produces over 432,000 gallons of water a day, and Mayor Keen says that is more than enough for the City of Menlo’s water customers.
