This critical investment will address structural vulnerabilities in Harris’s water system, create redundancy to prevent service disruptions, loop water mains to eliminate dead ends and boost fire protection, install shut-off valves for localized repairs, and upgrade aging infrastructure for greater reliability and water quality. “As our northern communities continue to grow, reliable, up-to-date water systems are critical for economic success and long-term sustainability,” said Congressman Stauber. “Harris residents deserve dependability, so I’m proud to deliver this funding to strengthen essential infrastructure and protect public safety in the Eighth District.” “On behalf of the City of Harris, I want to thank Congressman Pete Stauber and our federal partners for securing this $1.37 million investment in our municipal water system,” said Randy Carlson, Mayor of Harris. “This funding directly addresses some of our most pressing infrastructure needs—creating true system redundancy, improving fire protection, eliminating dead-end mains, and ensuring that our residents and businesses have a safe, reliable water supply for decades to come. This is a transformational step forward for Harris, and we are grateful for the continued support in strengthening the essential services our community depends on.” The Harris project is one of fifteen projects submitted by Congressman Stauber for Community Project Funding through the U.S. House of Representatives appropriations process. The Harris project was submitted under the FY26 Agriculture division, one of the three full-year appropriations measures included in the Senate Amendment to H.R. 5371. Other projects are still being considered under the remaining full-year FY26 appropriations bills, which Congress will be deliberating over the next few weeks. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T19:52:45Z |
