Your comment made me realize that we are probably speaking here of two very distinct idioms/expessions/situations (however in my opening post I clearly referred to only one of them).

1. «Take my word for it» — meaning, you may depend on what I say (and the possibility that what I say is in fact wrong is not even taken into consideration)

2. «I will take your word for it» — meaning, I accept what you are saying as the truth, but if what you are saying should actually turn out to be wrong, I will come back to you and confront you, demand an explanation, hold you responsible for possible unpleasant consequences resulting from your mistake or lie (and I take MikeNewYork’s word for this ;-))

I agree that it is the context that determines the responsibility- if I say I will take my lawyer’s word for something, it would have a far greater responsibility attached than if I take a friend’s word for something in a pub.

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.}
