    What level of planning is this? St. John’s is just about the only city in the Caribbean without a sewage and waste water management system. While we are running new water pipes the opportunity should be taken to lay sewage lines also. A sewage system is critical for the city immediately. We are now repairing the roads in St John’s and reinstalling water pipelines only to destroy the streets again to install sewage lines in the future. We should not be wasting time and money. Proper planning is essential.

    Many would say is only because of Carnival season or upcoming elections but I’m grateful for the upgrades that leaves this country looking better! Tired of old roads and no water
