EDA celebrates water, sewer, gas line extensions

By Larry Walker, Chairman,
Columbia Adair County Economic Development Authority


The Columbia Adair County Economic Development Authority (EDA) gathered Wednesday to celebrate construction getting underway for the Water, Sewer and Gas Line Extensions that will serve the Build Ready Pad and other sites on the North side of the Green River Commerce Park.

I want to thank the members of the Adair Fiscal Court and Judge Larry Bryant and the members of Columbia City Council & Mayor Pam Hoots for both entities contributing $150,000 each towards the local match of the 50/50 matching grant we received through the Kentucky Product Development Initiative (KPDI) Round 1 grant program for the $918,882 project. And thanks to the Kentucky Economic Development Finance Authority board for approving our project.

I want to recognize Michael "Bo" Ellison, President of Cumberland Pipeline, LLC, the contractor for this $797,342 project. We are glad that a "local contractor" received the bid and from what we see going on here today, we are pleased with the work that is in progress.
