As Nick Stauner’s explained in his answer, both «take the word» was used to refer to «to accept their word for a conclusion of the issue.» However, it might be beneficial to consider each of the involved sentences, one at a time. Here is the first one.

People want to use it to cook with and they’re looking to take the word.

This is obviously related to the question «But how do you convince people that the water supply is, in fact, safe?». It means people want to use the water, and they want to be assured that the «water is safe».

We can understand this take the word by looking up the words take and word in a dictionary. For example, here are the related entries from Macmillan Dictionary,

take 5 [transitive] to accept something that someone offers you
word 4 [singular/uncountable] news or information about someone or something

Thus, we can understand «they’re looking to take the word» as the people are looking to accept the news or information (in this case, the approval from the Health Department, according to a preceding paragraph in the transcript). Also note that this is not a common usage, as J.R. and others commented. Take someone’s word for it is more idiomatic and recommended for learners.

Here is the second sentence,

And I believe if they say to go ahead, I would take their word for it and I think the public, at large, will, too.

The phrase take someone’s word for it is common enough that dictionaries would list it. Here is what I found in the same dictionary,

take 5a. to accept an explanation or something that someone says without discussing it or arguing about it
  take someone’s word for it (=believe what someone tells you): You don’t have to take my word for it – ask anyone.

This means that the mayor trust the Health Department, and if they say the water is safe, he would believe them.

COMMON If you say to someone take my word for it, you mean that they should believe you because you know that what you are saying is correct. You’ll have nothing but trouble if you buy that house, take my word for it.

To make a serious promise, assurance, or vow (to someone). I give you my word that I will do everything in my power to have this matter resolved by next week.

phrase. If you say to someone ‘take my word for it,’ you mean that they should believe you because you are telling the truth. You’ll buy nothing but trouble if you buy that house, take my word for it.
