Responsible septic use needed, sewers notLetter by John Stephens to the Sooke News Mirror January 28, 2003Re: Councillor John Farmer’s frustration over the CRD Environment committee stalling in their decision to endorse recommendations of the sub-committee requiring regular septic system inspections for Sooke (News Mirror, Jan. 15): I get the impression from this article that Coun. Farmer has recently experienced a profound change of heart and although dismayed by his astonishing reversal, I do applaud his initiative in advocating implementation of a plan to ensure responsible use of septic fields in our community. Such a plan would cost each household only $30 a year compared to the bankrupting $629 per year for a sewer system, after the crippling connection charge of $150 per metre. After all, why should we pay for an expensive sewage system when we already have properly functioning septic systems? Right on, John! |
