About Me
- Name: Concerned Ratepayer

For many years, the 4350water blog has informed readers of plans by the Toowoomba City Council (now Toowoomba Regional Council) and the Qld government to introduce recycled water for drinking in Toowoomba. It has also looked at the issue from a State and Federal perspective and dealt with related State and Federal political issues. There continues to be a need for the Toowoomba Regional Council to be completely transparent in its dealings with the ratepayers and residents of Toowoomba. There also continues to be a need for open debate on the benefits and risks of potable reuse and long-term studies on the effects on humans of drinking recycled water. Coal seam gas water is emerging as a possible alternate water source for some uses for the region. The 4350water blog is a collective effort and thanks go to its many contributors.

Though counting of votes from Saturday’s by-election is yet to be completed, Mr Manners appears to be the runaway winner of the seat made vacant by Lyle Shelton’s unsuccessful bid for election to the State Parliament last month.
With most of the vote counted before counting ceased Saturday night, Mr Manners had almost 30% of the vote with 13,819 votes, more than double his nearest rival, Hugh Rose, with 6343 votes or 13.4%.
"We're happy with 30%, " Mr Manners said.
