A reminder from the City of Prince Rupert about the payment options available for residents during COVID has provided for some commentary related to the upcoming delivery of civic utility bills, with one resident using the City of Prince Rupert Facebook page to ask a question of City Hall.
In a short note attached to the city's advisory, Prince Rupert resident Gary Nelson calls for a discount on the annual water utility bills, a sentiment shared by a few other residents, who have clicked on with a like.
Residents of the City of Prince Rupert have been under a Boil Water Notification since some summer storms stirred up the turbidity of the water supply currently coming from Shawatlans Lake.
Other than a short pause at the end of September, the community has remained on the Water Advisory through the fall and it's one that now continues on into the second month of 2021, you can review some of those themes of the last six months from our archive on the topic here.
The last official update from the City came on December 11th, beyond that there have been few notes provided from City Council as to whether there are any short term remediation options that the city might consider towards concerns from residents.
That as we all await completion of the large scale water system program currently underway.
The topic of the ongoing Boil Water advisory is also one that has not made for much discussion at City Council in recent months.
So far the City has not provided for an answer to the question on the City's Facebook page, but as they say, watch this space ...
Residents of the city should be seeing the 2021 Utility bills in their mailbox at mid month.
For more notes on Civic issues see our Council Discussion archive page here.
