NWC - Toowoomba Yes campaign was unsophisticated ...
The NWC's 2006 Annual Report discusses the rejection of recycled water for potable use in Toowoomba.
It also refers to the current community consultation process in Goulburn which they believe will result in a more sophisticated model for community engagement.
See - NWC Annual Report - Page 19.
Adding the $460,000 spent on the Yes campaign and the other ratepayers' money Toowoomba City Council spent on Mayor Thorley's 'take no prisoners' approach and its various advisers and 'independent' experts, that's around $1 million for a campaign that is regarded by the National Water Commission as an unsophisticated approach to community engagement.
Well done!

So now we have the different approach in Goulburn with $500,000 to be spent to educate the people in a consultative programme.
This is being backed up with a scare tactic on Channel 9 morning TV showing Australia that there is only a puddle left in their dam, except that this is not the main water supply only a dam which was built when they put a road through.
Goulburn people are still living there albeit with strict water provisions because they have other water sources.
Still more lies and a Mayor who is hungry to be famous.
