Isn't this like locking the barns after the horses are gone? Shouldn't this have been held before a discussion on all the proposed annexations that will be presented at Monday's Smallsbarrie meeting? Once again, let's treat the citizens like mushrooms--keep in the dark and feed them BS!
ReplyDeleteIt's time for the county to take over all water and sewer from the municipalites. Where do you think the city is stealing their water from? The Paleo Channel and much of it is underground in the county. Stop annexations now!! If you run out of water again please don't dare whining about it again. The water is being stolen by the city of Salisbury and you refuse to do anything about it.
ReplyDeleteWater is fast becoming a worldwide problem and we better take care of the Paleo Channel now, since it can run out too. Everyone wastes lots of water and we need to wake up and conserve it. I hope this is brought up at the meeting.

Art I agree with you and I wonder what gives Salisbury the right to tap into the Paleo Channel and claim all rights to it. Who or what gives Salisbury the right to sell the water as if it was their own??
