Is it conceivable, or at the least verisimilar, for Plutonium radioisotope generators/atomic batteries to power a small manufacturing town?

A small manufacturing town serves as a comparison. The worldbuilding significance is for an underground facility with, in addition to a medical center, small-scale chemical production, a machinist workshop, hydroponics, and cultured meat lab wherein living conditions are adjusted to minimize power consumption. The desired population is between 300 and 400 and plutonium is preferred because its half-life is 87 years, which satisfies my time preference.

If nuclear power is out of the question, would it be safer to have a facility powered by a dam?
