LAFAYETTE PARISH WATERWORKS DISTRICT SOUTH UPGRADES WATER METERS

May 3, 2022 By Molly Harrison

Lafayette Parish, LA (May 2022) – The Lafayette Parish Waterworks District South announces the upgrade of water meters including an Automatic Meter Infrastructure. This upgrade will allow for more accurate reads and operate more efficiently while improving the service to the residents of the southwestern section of Lafayette Parish. The new meters will replace existing water meters which have been in service for over two decades. The installation of the meters has begun and is anticipated to be completed by the fall of 2022. Coburns and Utility Metering Solutions provided the equipment and installation. McBade Engineers assisted with the project design. Financing was provided by Government Capital Corporation, Southlake, Texas.

“Government Capital Corporation’s knowledge and expertise in Louisiana’s unique financing statutes benefited us greatly during the financing of this project,” commented Fred Arsement, Board President, Lafayette Parish Waterworks District South. “The team at Government Capital assisted us every step of the way so we could take advantage of this opportunity.”

“I want to congratulate Mr. Arsement and the Lafayette Parish Waterworks District South on this important infrastructure improvement project,” stated DC Greer, Senior Vice President, Government Capital Corporation. “Government Capital is proud to have partnered with the Lafayette Parish Waterworks District South on a project which will deliver tremendous benefits for many years.”
