Higher sewer rates coming!!!!

http://www2.canada.com/westerly/news/story.html?id=45460003-5703-4615-a341-4e31746af961

Westerly News reports that Bob Long says to expect higher sewer bills in the future !!! Unfortunately, I don't think this is a cruel April Fool's Day joke.....While towns across Canada have received grants for sewer and water under the Infrastructure Stimulus program and towns across BC have used the Towns for Tomorrow grants for infrastructure upgrades we are being told to expect higher sewer bills. It should be noted that Tofino is using the Towns for Tomorrow grant to beautify the North Chesterman's Beach parking lot.....the plan will actually reduce the number of parking spots.........
It's too bad that the District of Tofino didn't secure some grant financing BEFORE entering into agreements to accept sewage from Esowista and Pacific Rim Park......
