Toowoomba City Council Wetalla bore backflip ...

One day the Toowoomba City Council is suing the contractors on the Wetalla bore fiasco.

The next day they're not.

See - Water Futures - WIN News - Friday.

On Thursday, Deputy Mayor Ramia whose job it is to oversee water issues said:

"I think this could very well have some legal proceedings coming up and if the driller has done the wrong thing by the Toowoomba City Council he will be held accountable".

See - Water Futures - WIN News - Thursday.

But on Friday, CEO Spencer was singing a different tune:

Council's chief executive officer Phil Spencer yesterday refuted claims of legal action against contractors and consultants involved in the project claiming the works had been to a high standard.
...

"Any reports of legal action are unfounded," he said.


See - Chronicle - Council bore backflip.

You'd think they could make up their minds and put out a consistent view.

More and more it just looks like the keystone cops.

How much are ratepayers paying for this incompetence ...

Maybe they don't want a fight in Court as every bit of their skullduggery would come to light there. They would also be in the gun for the spending of ratepayers money in a case they could not win. I'm waiting to hear from the drillers. They would know their business better than these Councillors, headed by Kevie.What instructions were they given by Council?
