The city of Flint is planning on using $510,000 of its federal COVID relief on a plumbing program to replace pipes in residents homes.
The city’s Finance committee was reviewing the proposal at the July 23 meeting.
The city of Flint has an “In-Home Plumbing Program” with a goal of eliminating lead hazards and improving water infrastructure inside homes.
The city’s $510,000 from the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) will be used as a required match to the $510,000 put up in a grant from the U.S. Department of Treasury.
The grant would provide home inspections and replacement parts in home faucets, water lines and water heaters.
