The City of Abbeville has secured $4.5 million in federal funding through the office of U.S. Senator John Kennedy to upgrade portions of the municipal electric system.
The project includes relocating and consolidating two existing electrical substations. These improvements will modernize key components of the distribution system, increase operational efficiency, and enhance overall reliability.
Substations are essential to delivering power throughout the community. Repositioning and upgrading this equipment will improve system performance, reduce long-term maintenance needs, and strengthen service stability for residents, businesses, and public facilities.
Updates will be provided as engineering and implementation phases progress.
The City of Abbeville issued the following press release regarding this project:
We have identified a website that falsely claims to be an official online payment portal for the City of Abbeville. Please be aware that if you choose to use a third-party website like Doxo.com to pay your utility bills there is a delay in receipt of the payment to your account. This delay could lead to late fees and disconnection of your utility services. We do not endorse Doxo.com or its affiliates and cannot waive additional charges or issues caused by using their service.
We strongly recommend using the City of Abbeville’s official payment portal for online transactions.Â
