Salisbury Mayor James Ireton, Jr., will hold a press conference tomorrow, Friday, July 10, 2009, at 3:00 p.m., regarding the City’s Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP). The press conference will be held at the WWTP, located at 1142 Marine Road, Salisbury.
“The extraordinary cost to taxpayers for our WWTP upgrade makes notifying the public of our course of action important,” said Mayor Ireton. “It would be easy and irresponsible to say this is an inherited problem, but I will not. I am committed, as is our City Council, our plant operators, and our legal department, to repairing what this plant currently cannot do successfully and holding accountable anyone who has contributed to the plant not meeting expectations at this time. We are resolute in our commitment that we spend our rate payer’s dollars wisely and that we advocate for the public that has paid for this new plant.”
Good dam deal! Go, Ireton!

ReplyDeleteYou just did!
Sounds like even with the warmer weather the dang thing still ain't working.

ReplyDeleteActually you would be both accurate and prudent to call this an "inherited problem".
It would be easy and irresponsible for Bubba Comegys to do so.
Anybody watched the "latrine scene" in Slum Dog Millionaire"?

ReplyDeleteGo, Mayor. I hope that there will be substance in what you present tomorrow and that those responsible for the problems will really be held accountable. Was there a conspiracy (prior to the election) by the past administration to cover up the magnitude of the problem? If so, will those individuals be prosecuted? That's something I'd like to know.
ReplyDeleteI think those that designed this and those that blindly went along with it should be fired!
