Roswell officials said the city’s just completed $15 million water plant will be more efficient and less costly, saving the city $11.6 million over the next 20 years.
A city spokesman said the facility at 1000 Dobbs Drive replaces an 80-year-old plant whose equipment frequently broke down and which was becoming more and more expensive to repair, with some parts no longer available. The new plant will significantly cut production and repair costs, saving the city a chunk of money. Other savings will come from a reduced need to purchase water from Fulton County.
The completed plant began providing water in March and serves a portion of Roswell, with the rest getting Fulton County water service.
A ribbon-cutting is set for 10 a.m. Thursday at the plant.
