A federal highway act law requires updated equipment and services, threatening operation of the present 1952 vehicle. If disbanded, Bennington and Williamstown services may bill residents at $25, mutual aid with nearby squads ends, and local emergency calls would be redirected. Chief Ware urges a yes vote to keep the volunteer team operating and serving 76 calls in the year.
