Exposing all the weaknesses of GSWC's argument for the increase, all the while showing the inequities to continue business with them. <BR/><BR/> This is not an honest group asking for what is due them, they are simply exploiting the strengths of their legal arrangement with the people of Ojai. Thanks to F.L.O.W., we have a chance to change this only one side benefits arrangement, to one that the people of Ojai, can dictate what is the priority for our Water Quality and Distribution needs.<BR/><BR/>The founders of F.L.O.W. say it could take along time to accomplish this. Imagine, the money you pay, whether it gets more expensive or not, that money goes into the system that supplies your water, not to another share holder who could really give a damn about your water concerns. In time, water quality improves as I believe our collective health may as well.<BR/><BR/>Had we taken control of Ojai's water works when the opportunity came up, about '98', we wouldn't be having all the problems we have now, and have had, for several decades. As one alluded to, this is one issue that Ojai is one about.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
