6/1/2026 Carroll County Public Service Authority Meeting.

The Carroll County Public Service Authority held a meeting on June 1, 2026, primarily addressing ongoing water quality issues in the Kaa community. Several residents spoke about poor water quality, including discoloration, elevated manganese levels, and damage to plumbing and clothing, expressing concerns about health risks and the financial burden of purchasing bottled water. The board discussed potential solutions, including installing a two-inch water line to improve circulation and reduce contamination in the affected area. Funding challenges were noted, with attempts to secure assistance from the health department proving unsuccessful. The board approved moving forward with the two-inch line installation as a preliminary measure and agreed to continue exploring long-term solutions. A motion to adjourn was passed unanimously. No specific contract awards or vendor selections were mentioned, but the discussion indicated future procurement related to water infrastructure improvements.
