The Town of Bethany, located on the southern border of Genesee County in New York, was established in 1812 and covers 36 square miles. With a population of approximately 1,700 people residing in over 655 households, the town is predominantly farmland, making up about 90% of its area. Bethany is divided into four different school districts and offers various town services, including licenses, property taxes, and community information. Bethany is currently facing a severe water shortage, with many residents experiencing dry wells. To address this issue, the town has set up a water tanker at the Bethany Town Hall for residents to fill their water totes. Additionally, bottled drinking water is being distributed to those affected. The town is actively seeking input from residents in Water District #5 for the implementation of a town water system, and a public hearing will be held to discuss the matter. Bethany is committed to conserving water resources and ensuring the health and safety of its residents.Generated from the website
