Non-Committal Garlick

He'd likely say that he didn't want to blow his own horn.

But as Chair of the Stakeholders' Advisory Committee--the appointed group of Greater Vernon residents who applied to review Master Water Plan 2012--you'd believe there'd be something of a more substantive statement in a Mayor's annual address to ~10,000 Coldstream residents than what it contained:

from June's 12-page District of Coldstream Community News here.

Coldstream's non-committal mayor seriously downplays he was--and remains--an integral part of the manipulative and biased team of politicians who were in office during the consultants' submission--and acceptance by GVAC--of the Master Water Plan 2012...indeed even earlier versions, prior to the failure of the 2014 borrowing referendum for the plan.
The team included bureaucrats of GVW who were prepared to have the status quo (MWP 2012) prevail at all cost...that is, residents' costs.

Let's see if non-committal fits:

"Yup, that not only fits," affirms Kia, "but his 'leading' role should've included a photo with the description."

"Impacts on the community."
No kidding.

As Buchanan Road residents receive a questionnaire from a consultant, no-one knows what's happening.  Didn't GVW say they'd need to do a better job of communicating?  When?

Sounds as though a 900mm chlorinated line will soon front Buchanan Road properties...and we residents were each asked by the consulting technician to indicate where/if our non-potable / potable water connections are (or should be) located.  Presumably the existing 750mm chlorinated water line will become raw water?  (according to the technician).

No-one along the street has received any communication from GVW bureaucrats.
Shhhhhh....maybe they're speaking in tongues...
