PUBLIC MEETING

The City of Springfield hereby gives notice that a public meeting will be held to discuss a
wastewater improvement project funded by the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) on February 14, 2023,
at 6:00pm in the City Hall. 130 South Laurel St in Springfield, Georgia.

The proposed project includes the construction of a lift station and extension of sewer force main
lines a distance of two and a half miles to reach the New Ebenezer Retreat Center as a sewer
customer.

The purposes of the public meeting are to:

  1. Inform the public of the need for improvements to the City’s wastewater system.
  2. To comply with Section 391-3-6-.02 of Georgia’s Water Quality Control Rules (and amendments
    thereto).
  3. To encourage public involvement in the development of a plan to improve the wastewater system.

During the public meeting the City will attempt to identify public preferences for alternative
methods of improving the City’s wastewater facilities. These alternatives will be evaluated and
included in the City’s Facilities Planning and Environmental Review Document, the major planning
document covering the wastewater system improvements. These documents are available for public
inspection through the date of the public meeting at 130 South Laurel St in Springfield, Georgia
during the normal business hours.

Your participation is encouraged and considered essential to the selection and
development of the final plan to be adopted prior to its approval by the State of Georgia,
Department of Natural Resources.
