LETTER TO THE EDITOR: Water meters, who benefits? The world does! December 16, 2020 Reading time: 1 min Dear Editor, In today’s world of increasing catastrophic weather events due to climate change how can anyone question saving precious resources like water. I understand that Cornwall is the only city of its size not to have water meters. And it shows in the number of homes that leave their sprinklers on all night to drench their green lawns and have untold gallons run into the sewers. And yes maybe families should think twice before using the water. As for costs, Mr Kelly thinks it is a cash grab by the city and Mr MacIntosh thinks it will cost the city. What we do know is it is jeopardizing the climate that we are leaving for our kids and grandkids. Council has delayed this inevitable decision for years and should be ashamed that they continue to stand up as the only Ontario city to do so.
