As the City of Kyle works through its growing pans to drought-proof and recycle water resources, Austin Congressman Lloyd Doggett announced on Tuesday that $2 million in direct federal appropriations has been secured for Kyle to use toward its Reclaimed Water Master Plan.
“We are exceptionally grateful for Representative Doggett’s support and advocacy for our Reclaimed Water Master Plan Project,” Mayor Travis Mitchell said. “As Central Texas continues to grow, so does the demand on the region’s limited water supplies. Reclaimed water has proven to be a sustainable solution for rapid growth and provides a cost-effective and ‘drought-proof’ water resource for current and future public infrastructure.”
These funds allow the city to build out their water conservation infrastructure, as Kyle innovates in using reclaimed water for public purposes.
