This reference mark is located on the grounds of the standpipe on the south end of town. The mark set in the southeast corner of a rectangular concrete slab (it looks like it is part of a water meter access point). While I have not visited the mark since 2012, The Snowdog posted a "found it" log on geocaching.com for this benchmark in February 2022, which leads me to believe that little has changed for the reference mark over the last decade.
