What happened
Tensions regarding water infrastructure persist between Williston and Trenton. A joint meeting involved the Williams County Commission, Williston City Commission, Williams County Water Resource District Board, and Trenton Water Users Cooperative Board, where the city and county agreed to purchase the cooperative’s vault for up to $175,000. However, the organizations have not yet reached an agreement following the cooperative's meeting.

Why it matters
The dispute involves aging water infrastructure in the Trenton area, including a pipe installed in 1959. The conflict relates to a 1989 agreement between the Trenton Water Users Cooperative and Williston regarding water provision. The failure to resolve the vault sale creates uncertainty over water supply for Trenton area residents.
