Bennington officials discuss Globe Union water needs

Raymond B. Bowen of the Bennington County Industrial Corporation told town and village leaders there is no near prospect of large new industry in Bennington yet he urged a moral commitment to supply water for sprinkler systems as Globe Union expands. William H. Morse said a 100000 to 150000 square foot shopping center may rise near the Globe Union plant, with potential requests for water from multiple users including Heald Plastics and the St Johnsbury trucking terminal. Alfred W. Ellett confirmed several sprinkler requests, and engineer Burton Winslow said the Kolles Brooktown project can meet demand if a new line is installed.
