The town of Bethune will raise its water rates by 18 percent in July. Bethune Town Council held a public meeting Thursday about a proposed upgrade to the town’s aging and deteriorating water system during which council members discussed the plan for completing the project. The meeting was the final step in the process for applying for a Rural Development Authority (RDA) grant to help pay for the upgrade.
