The city of Vernon has set a date for pulling out of Greater Vernon Water. Mayor Wayne Lippert says they've been unable to resolve some ongoing differences with Areas B and C of NORD.
Lippert told KISS FM, "The city of Vernon is definately wanting to withdraw from the water service, the Greater Vernon water utility (distribution), and the date we would like to withdraw is January 1, 2009."
Lippert says the change should mean better service for Vernon residents, as the city will be able to address water concerns quicker.
The mayor doesn't think the move will mean an end to the Greater Vernon Services Committee, as there will still be a partnership for supplying water.

It is quite possible that the City will benefit from the change but what about US, poor cousins who are paying the same rate as the City folks yet we get no improvement to our water. Here is another use for the cash cow!!
