Wardensville Taps New Water System After Long Wait
Wardensville West Virginia tested its new water system delivering 162 hookups for up to 5 000 people. Mayor Holmes Spence praised the project funded by a Farm Home Administration grant of 53 000 and a 128 000 FHA loan at 3 34 percent interest. The system runs from Hawkins Farm on Waites Run and can be expanded if growth demands, with plans for a recreation park and future sewage plant.
