Streetscape Improvement Project Public Input Session

The Town of Norwood has received a $787,500 grant from the NC Rural Infrastructure Authority for a streetscape improvement project for North Main Street between Pee Dee Avenue and Whitley Street.  This grant will provide for the installation of decorative sidewalks, new pedestrian scale streetlights, cast iron tree grates, street trees and wiring to light the street trees.  Chambers Engineering is designing these improvements.

 

The Town and Chambers Engineering will hold a public input session on Thursday, May 8 at 5:30 pm at Town Hall to share the proposed design and receive input from business owners, property owners, and citizens regarding these improvements.   We would encourage anyone who is interested to attend and learn more about this exciting project for downtown Norwood and to provide your input.

Drinking Water Notifications

This information is to provide an update to customers of the Town of Norwood water system.  Customers of the Town received notices in January and April that the levels of Haloacetic Acids (HAA5) exceeded water standards for the last quarter of 2024 and the first quarter of 2025.   The standard is 0.060.  The values for the last quarter of 2024 were 0.065 and for the first quarter of 2025 were 0.061.  It is important to note that exceedance of the standard only occurred in the last quarter of 2024.  However, this is required to be reported on a rolling average of three quarters, so the exceedance in the last quarter of 2024 was averaged into these calculations.  There have been no exceedances of HAA5 in 2025 to date.

 

HAA5 is a disinfection byproduct that occurs when chlorine that is used to treat water interacts with naturally occurring organic matter.  There appear to be higher levels of organic matter in Lake Tillery during the last quarter of 2024 which resulted in the exceedance in that quarter.  The Water Treatment Plant Operator increased chemical treatment after receiving the results of the testing for the last quarter, and that has contributed to the desired result of no exceedances to the standard in 2025.
