A critical infrastructure project took center stage during the Haslet City Council's budget workshop on August 2, 2025, as officials discussed the urgent need to lower a section of the waterline on Harmon Road. The area, located near the water tower and south of Carraway, has been identified as having an alarmingly shallow waterline, with some sections measuring as little as 24 inches deep.

City officials emphasized the necessity of this project, citing that the grading in the area has contributed to the shallow depth, which poses potential risks. The goal is to lower the waterline to a depth of at least five feet, ensuring it meets safety and operational standards.

This project highlights the city's commitment to maintaining and improving its water infrastructure, addressing issues before they escalate into larger problems. As discussions continue, the council is expected to prioritize funding for this essential work in the upcoming budget, aiming to enhance the reliability of water services for residents.
