Manchester Water Co faces costly upgrades to meet standards
In 1971 the Manchester Water Co asked the Public Service Board for a rate rise as it acknowledged serious system deficiencies. Manager Richard D. Hayes cited poor water quality, inadequate pipe sizes, and limited fire flow capacity. State and federal regulators focus on water quality, with the Health Department urging upgrades while offering guidance rather than immediate mandates.

Constable Farrell gains wider patrol duties this summer
Arlington selectmen approve extending Constable Charles Farrell’s patrol to an average of 30 hours per week at 5 dollars per hour until Sept 6. He may hire help, use radar at his discretion, and continue drawing pay for his constable role plus vehicle mileage. The move follows a youth behavior plan discussed May 28 and a prior radar reimbursement dispute.
