The bill's passage is expected to have a positive impact on the residents of Benoit by facilitating necessary upgrades to the town's outdated water and sewer infrastructure. Investing in these systems is essential for public health and environmental protection, as modern systems can help prevent contamination issues and provide improved service reliability. As this funding comes directly from the state, it may also encourage local interest in further infrastructure development and maintenance efforts.
