It took an hour of assurances on Friday but finally the Rappahannock supervisors voted to formally accept the state’s $520,000 block grant, capping a 10 year effort to secure funding for Sperryville’s sewer system and bringing the total committed to the project to $2 million.
On February 28, the county’s Water and Sewer Authority (WSA) received word of the final award of $1.6 million from the Federal Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for construction of the sewer system. Wayne Cilimberg, executive director for the Rappahannock - Rapid an Planning District Commission which will admimgfor the grant, explained on Friday that the EPA grant was awarded directly to Rappahannock’s WSA. “You have no involvement and no obligation in that,” he told the supervisors.
