teamed up and launched a verbal tirade against Regional Public Works staffers and councillors who are opposing the use of communal wells in the region The mayor said regional staffers and some councillors were acting like ostriches with their heads in the sand Get out and talk to John Kirk International Water Supply she challenged The mayor claimed there was an excellent supply of water in the Nassagaweya area and the only reason the region Is so concerned about the use of communal wells Is because of a bad experience Burlington had a few years back when a well went dry Tied down The mayor claimed that Mr Kirk an expert on the subject claims there Is an abundance of excellent water available in the Nassagaweya area She argued in her most forceful fashion that the northern part of the region was being tied down because of on error and bad ex penence In Burlington Under provincial regulations the region is responsible for ensuring the continuation of a suitable water supply once it approves communal wells Because of the potentially expensive position the region could find itself in staff and elected officials from the south have been reluctant to approve any communal wells anywhere Nothing specific Acting Public Works director Jack said comments he and his department had made were of a general nature No specific areas of the region were examined he told the works committee Mayor argued that the looped well system feeding off a communal well would provide some fire protection for the people and this would be lost with the banning of communal welh Councillor lashed into the staff and some councillors for the position they took It amazes me to see the shortsightedness The whole north is developed on communal wells so what arc you going to do This is a The areas have always done this and now it Is passed to the region and region should carry on Its completely ridiculous gallons a day and we have no problem Tins is just out of this world the angry
