Hattiesburg approves bid of nearly $7.7 million to replace residential water meters
SUMMARY: Hattiesburg is set to replace residential water meters after approving a $7.7 million bid. City leaders say this is essential due to failing batteries in thousands of meters, which are no longer transmitting data automatically. As a result, staff members are manually reading meters, causing billing delays for residents. City officials aim to streamline the process and restore the 30-day billing cycle with this replacement. The project is expected to take 9 to 12 months. More details on the update will be provided tonight at 10 PM.
