Etowah County seeks grant for water improvements



Residents in western Etowah county could be getting some needed water system improvements if the county is awarded a community development block grant to help fund the project.  The Etowah county commission Tuesday approved a resolution to apply for the grant on behalf of the West Etowah County Water Authority.  The grant is thru the Alabama Department of Economic and Community Affairs community development block grant county fund for fiscal year 2013.  District 4 commissioner Jeff Overstreet who represents western Etowah county on the commission says the grant is important to residents in rural Etowah county.  Commissioner Overstreet said  they have been working with ADECA for several years on west Etowah and Highland which just completed improvements to their system.
