Flomaton seeks grant for sewer

Lift station installed in 90’s to be replaced

Following a public meeting to discuss applying for a $400,000 grant to replace a sewer lift station on Cary Street, the Flomaton Town Council gave its OK to proceed, which will require a $45,000 match if the grant is awarded.

Cara Stallman with Grant Management, LLC., told the council Monday afternoon that the deadline to apply for the Community Development Block Grant was July 2. She also told the council she didn’t get paid unless the grant was approved.
