There is a giant reserve of drinking water under six towns in Carroll County. This March, those towns are proposing ordinances to keep it clean.
An Ossipee resident argues that the ordinances to be voted on at Town Meeting are essential and are pro-business. “Clean water, along with great scenery, is crucial to attracting new residents and new businesses to the Lakes Region.”
Voters on March 8 should approve their town’s Aquifer protection ordinance “to create a web of consistent safeguards for our drinking water supply across the entire watershed.”
Carroll County Independent editorial urges support at Town Meeting for a warrant article that “is vital to the literal health” of the towns situated over the Ossipee Aquifer.
