Toowoomba Water Futures project costs ...

To date, over $400,000 has been spent on consultancies for the Mayor's controversial recycled sewage project, including:

- $360,900 paid to CH2M Hill
- $27,570 paid to Arup Water Qld
- $8,400 paid to GHD
- $10,000 paid to 4Site Natural Solutions
- $2,380 paid to Jocelyn Peak Pty Ltd
- $220 paid to Rowland Communication Group

(Figures published in the Chronicle on 20 January 2005)

Interestingly, CH2M Hill accounts for almost 90% of the consulting fees. Early on in the water debate, the Mayor denied any CH2M Hill involvement.

How interesting when the truth does finally come out ...

Update:

The amout of $360,900 is a commitment by the Council - only $115,600 had been paid as at 31 December, with another amount of $110,000 due for payment.
