Communicating...Albeit a Tad Late


Oh for heaven's sake!

Today's RDNO blurb in the newspaper, entitled "Coldstream Locates" stated:

"The Regional District of North Okanagan - Greater Vernon Water
would like to notify District of Coldstream customers
that a GVW representative is in their area
completing locates for water meter service valves, meters
 and property posts.
This is being done to ensure efficient operation of the GVW system
and possibly prepare for future infrastructure upgrades.
If you have any questions, please contact our office
at 250.550.3700 or engineering@rdno.ca"

Well, that explains it.
A bit.

GVW previously committed to improving communications/notifications with their customers--especially since the failed water referendum in November 2014--of planned projects.  

But the RDNO notice should've preceded the visit by the Gentech technician (story here "Now I'm Really Confused").



"Late communication is still an improvement over bureaucratic doublespeak," offers Kia.

Suppose so.

However the RDNO notice in the newspaper should've actually preceded the technician's visit, "Lavington Questionnaire" in hand.

Neighbours wouldn't have called and asked what the heck was going on with the MWP.
