Sooke Lake is 99.9% full.
Egads! The CRD better enact Stage 3 watering restrictions immediately. How will we ever survive next summer with that emptiness of 1/10 of 1% full capacity???

Don't forget the consequent price increase on what we are allowed to use!

Were they really going to run out of money if they didn't raise the rates?

What a shame we cant capture the overflow and sell it to our cousins to the south!!!
Actually.. the CRD should open a bottling station there. They'd make a killing from selling bottled water.

I like your idea. Thats the type of thinking that enhances a community. Its a shame that the CRD is incapable of this type of perspective!
Create a community cause, divert all those plastic water bottels from the landfill, shred them, manufacture new bottles locally, fill them with our abundant resource of water, and compete.
Local jobs are created, revenue is earned instead of regressive taxes and the community is healthier.
You listening Nils?

Once again, the Sooke reservoir level is now at 100%, and the water is going over the spillway and down the river.

There is something seriously wrong with the formula, when people do the right thing, i.e. use less water, and then have to pay extra for doing that!
Only the government can design a system that defies the laws of free-market economics.

Adding to that the urban core subsidizes the costly extension of water mains and supply of water to new suburban subdivisions.
Extension of water mains? I think the water gets to Westshore before it gets to Victoria, so Victoria would be at the end of that line.
The developer pays for the extension of water lines into any new development and the people who use the water pay for it the same as Victoria residents do.
Victoria is going to have to pay to upgrade it's water and waste water lines which are going to be subsidized by all the new residents in the new developments buying water.

... or as we see with some things the price increases to make up for falling demand.
Not so fast. Please name the thing you refer to here.
