WHATELY About 20 residents showed up outside the Town Offices on Saturday morning to approve all four articles on the Special Town Meeting warrant, including upgrades to the Water Department’s pumping station.
All four articles passed without discussion and with unanimous support.
The first article sought approval to allocate $50,000 for upgrades at the Water Department’s pumping station on Chestnut Plain Road. Town Administrator Brian Domina previously explained that the Water Department needs money to buy booster pumps for the main pumphouse.
