Mississippi schools covered by a federal order would be scrutinized first.

Necessity Hearings Set for U S Route 7 Phase in Bennington
Landowners along the proposed U S Route 7 segment from Hunt Street in Bennington to south of Shaftsbury face a final chance this summer to delay or alter plans for the 10.5 million expressway. Bennington County Court will schedule a necessity hearing in late August or September to decide if construction is required. If approved, the department will condemn property and set compensation by fair market values, with appeals possible to the Highway Board and then a jury trial. The project includes a North Bennington spur, a West Kocher Drive extension, and a later Beltline to relieve village traffic, with timing dependent on funding and court decisions.
