Gov. Reeves visits Gautier to discuss GOMESA funding
Gov. Reeves visits Gautier to discuss GOMESA funding By Chancelor Winn | May 6, 2021 at 7:21 AM CDT - Updated May 6 at 7:22 AM
GAUTIER, Miss. (WLOX) - Mississippi Governor Tate Reeves was on the Gulf Coast this week to discuss how GOMESA funding will help improve infrastructure in Gautier.
The City of Gautier is set to receive $2.7 million in funding to improve the sewage infrastructure.
Reeves met with city leaders Wednesday to talk about that plan in more detail, highlighting how the money will be able to help residents and businesses throughout Gautier.
One of the issues in the city with the aging sewage infrastructure is sewage overflowing out of manholes. This happens after heavy rains because cracks have formed in the sewer piping underground, allowing rainwater to leak inside and overload the system.
