Toowoomba Regional Council 2008 election - candidate Rob Berry goes live ...

Read his website here - Candidate Berry.

His biggest issue seems to be changing the name of the council from 'Toowoomba Regional Council' to 'Darling Downs Regional Council' and sledging those who wanted to keep the name Toowoomba City Council.

This reflects his 'positive regional attitude'.

Beyond that, he's against forcing people to drink recycled water.

His plan to stop plans to sell recycled water to Acland Coal and 'give the water to all residents water (sic) via a purple pipe to improve their quality of living and their gardens' is perhaps a little impractical - retrofitting Toowoomba with a purple pipe system will never happen.

It seems candidate Crystal Stark is also against potable reuse once you read through the reams of campaign fluff - it does say - 'I will go on record NOW as telling you I am NOT in favour of drinking recycled sewerage water'.

Clearly seeking No voters ...
