Affluent effluent too rich for Colwood majority

In West Shore community, a large majority of residents are on a septic, not sewerage system

It about time Colwood city council takes a courageous stand and protects residents from this sewage treatment funding idiocy initiated by the Friends of Mr. Floatie.

Currently, the majority of Colwood ratepayers are wholly responsible for our own sewage treatment.

We own, operate and maintain highly efficient septic systems, and weB次元官网网址檒l do so well into the foreseeable future.

Why anyone in their right mind would hold the opinion that septic system owners should face a potentially massive tax increase to support a system that we will never be connected to is staggering.

Coun. Judith Cullington says, B次元官网网址(WeB次元官网网址檒l) look at opportunities for smaller, localized treatment plants and kind of address new development as it comes on board.

ThatB次元官网网址檚 certainly not a done decision, but thatB次元官网网址檚 certainly what we heard from people.B次元官网网址

My question to Cullington, why isnB次元官网网址檛 this a done decision?

Let the sewage system users and future developers pay for any projected increase in capacity.

ItB次元官网网址檚 their issue. Their affluent effluent is far too rich for the rest of us.
