Where the hell are Reed and Langevin? 40+ years combined in Washington, so they are suppose to have all this power, clout and influence. Show me the money! This administration has gone on a spending spree of a $1T a year, for 5 years including $90B for so called clean & green energy projects...Out of all this walking around money being spent these guys couldn't find $100M for Warwick for "shovel ready" projects like a new sewer plant to replace the over capacity, out date current plant which could flood again, and not in 500 years? They (Reed and Langevin) couldn't find money to fund a 60/40 bond program to provide grant $$$ and ease the financial burden of folks tying into the system? Such a program would speed up compliance and usage. Meanwhile, what about Warwick residents that were told they wouldn't get sewers for some time and went out and paid to replace cesspools with state of the art ISDS septic systems, only now they are going to incur a double penalty? If the system is new, why force a tie in? You are going to assess anyway, why a double penalty? Reed and Langevin, show me documentation of ANYTHING you have proposed as a legislative solution to this issue? Bottom line is we had a grant program before and it worked...If we are still at the point where we need study groups and commissions to try and fact find solutions to this issue, we have a whole lot of deadwood in place that serves no one, starting with Reed and Langevin and running downhill. Lead, follow or get the hell out of the way.
