Apathy dooms Bennington County regional council plan
Efforts to form a Bennington County Regional Council to promote economic revival died last night after only four attendees at its organizational session. John G. Simson of the BCRC called the venture dead, citing apathy among initial supporters and promising business leaders. He noted communities that actively pursue industry fare better, while many small towns fail to attract new firms. The group had aimed to plan the Green Mountain Industrial Tour and other promotional activities, but the session yielded little momentum. The outcome underscores the challenge of mobilizing countywide economic cooperation.
