Good evening everyone....
And so it begins, as predicted........ For nine straight years and even longer, we have been subjected to water use restrictions..... my voice was too loud to Stop allowing more subdivisions......
We buy our water from St John's..... They can turn it off or raise the price we pay..... Over densification causes a strain on the water supply....we owe it to our citizens to supply water and sewer services to the present taxpayers first...... The ones that built this town..... Once everyone is properly serviced, then and only then, should we consider any new development..... This was exactly my argument when we spent almost a million dollars on a splash pad and hooked it up to town water that we pay close to 60 cents a cubic meter from the city of St John's..... Instead of digging an artesian well and having free water forever..... This is just one of the reasons I was called a "disruptor" when I was simply protecting our taxpayers from irresponsible spending and wasting our water supply needlessly... This is all on the public record and two of those that silenced my voice by removing me from my council seat in October of 2024 were just reelected as a councilor and your Mayor... And they are both the main drivers for over densification in our town, smaller building lots, residential and commercial zones in the same place location and all this they plan to do before we provide water and sewer services to our present taxpayers....
Accountability matters....
