Sen. Katie Britt pushes bill for water system upgrades in Union Springs

Sen. Katie Britt is pushing a $3 million bill to make upgrades to the water system in Union Springs through the Fiscal Year 2025 (FY25) Interior, Environment, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act. 

If approved by the full senate the project will include constructing a new water supply production well and a 500,000-gallon elevated water storage tank.

An announcement from Britt said that the tank will ensure "consistent" water pressure and water service at local care facilities that include the Spring Manor Assisted Living Facility, the Bullock County Hospital, and the Fresenius Kidney Dialysis Clinic.

Senator Britt secures $1.27 million in funding for Dothan ShotSpotter program

$1.257 million dollars could be going toward a new tool for Dothan law enforcement and first responders.

The ShotSpotter Gunfire Location, Alert and Analysis System’s goal centers itself around assisting response to violent crime in the city.

The detection services uses acoustic sensors to discover and locate gunfire. It then reports that information to responding agencies in real time.

“The speed and accuracy of information makes a world of difference for law enforcement officers and first responders when they’re working diligently to protect and serve our communities,” said U.S. Senator Katie Britt (R-AL), who is helping with getting the funding for Dothan to go towards the system.

Sen. Katie Britt secures $1.97 million to improve Bayou La Batre’s Wastewater Plant

Sen. Katie Britt secured $1.97 million to make critical updates to the Bayou La Batre Wastewater Treatment Plant.

These funds will help improve the safety, efficiency and reliability of the plant.

Executive Director of Utilities Dan McCrory said securing the funds was a process and the grant will impact the community as a whole.

“Being able to get this stuff either rebuilt, repaired or replaced is environmentally sound,” McCrory said. “It’s good for long-term use to take care of not only the bay, but for the Portersville Bay as a whole for everybody.”
