Water and Sewer rate increases

Plenty of not very nice reaction to the rate increases in the Windsor Star's Soundoff section.

You can submit your own comment.

The other option is contacting your individual Councillors and the Mayor, who seem to agree with this method of act first, let the poor public know later.

Edit: if any of the Councillors respond with "there's nothing they can do about it, the rates etc, are set based on recommendations from Enwin/WUC" or something to that effect, it might be worthwhile reminding them that since they all pocketed $17,531.39 from Enwin/WUC, they share in the responsibility for any decisions. (that doesn't include the new Councillors, Marra, Hatfield and Dilkens - though they stand to benefit from this years pot).
