Bristol Water Purchase Contention Sparks Arbitration Debate
At Providence on Wednesday the Appellate Court heard Bristol water questions as officials and citizens argued demurrers in a bill seeking arbitration over a May 1895 vote to purchase water works. The town asserts limited powers and lack of authority to compel arbitration or tax for the price, while the Water Company and supporters contend the contract implies arbitration and a defined price cap.
