VICTORIA - Tomorrow Capital Regional District board members are expected to decide where exactly they'll build treatment plants.
But protestors who gathered at the BC Legislature today want them to slow down.
The provincial government told the CRD to come up with a plan three years ago. Barry Penner says it's time to move on.
That's not washing with those who believe Victoria's ocean currents already disperses the pollution we flush, without needing treatment.
And while convincing those who don't believe in the science may be difficult, the next step for politicians is getting taxpayers on side.
That may be tough. In Victoria, the increase per household is between $250 and $450.
It's more in Oak Bay, less in Saanich.
Victoria mayor Dean Fortin points out taxpayers already pay for garbage pickup, and water. He says sewage treatment costs are part of living in an urban centre.
