Rural Water funding bill passes House

Partial funding for a $14 million water system expansion for Stutsman Rural Water District took a step forward Friday. The North Dakota House of Representatives passed House Bill 1269, providing $9.97 million in grants for an expansion that brings water to about 750 residences in an area including Woodworth and Streeter. The rest of the funds would be borrowed from U.S. Department of Agriculture Rural Development.
