The City of Thomasville is pursuing a grant to help pay for upgrades to water, sewer, and drainage infrastructure in the Dewey City neighborhood. The overall plan cost close to $4 million. If the city’s federal application is approved it could get up to $750 thousand. City planner Kenneth Thompson says the current pipes are near the end of their life. We have a number of pipes that are aging and they may be made out of a material that is no longer the most suitable material. So we will be looking to use the funds to expedite that process, said Thompson.
