Our Water Problem Part 3 outlines a bond issue plan to widen Bennington water supply by building a dam, settling basin, and pipeline while financing through a town sponsored project. It explains how the village and town systems would share operation and revenue under the Putnam deed, which limits expansion spending to 1,500 dollars yearly and directs hospital support.
