During the December meeting of the Summerville City Council, Mayor Harry Harvey addressed residents with important updates on various projects and initiatives currently underway in the city. One of the key topics discussed was the ongoing efforts by the water department to tackle PFAS contaminants in the city’s drinking water. Mayor Harvey reported that a pilot study aimed at addressing these contaminants was successfully completed in mid-November. The city is now awaiting results and recommendations from their engineering firm, which will guide future actions. In light of the PFAS issues, the city has been proactive in seeking alternative solutions and additional drinking water sources. Mayor Harvey noted that the development of new wells off Highway 48 near Fish Hatchery Road is in progress. Specifically, the first well project is moving forward smoothly, with anticipated results expected to be shared shortly. As Summerville continues to address these vital water quality concerns, Mayor Harvey emphasized the importance of keeping the community informed about the city’s efforts to address the water situation.
