We need to share our water??

"We need to share our water" is on the back of Comox Valley Regional District truck(s).  We need to share our water - with whom? Is that why we have such severe water restrictions?
The Comox Valley Water Service (function 300) is funded by the Bulk Water rates paid by the users.  About 90% of the funding is from Courtenay and Comox.  The RD staff seem to be cutting our use so we can share it with those projects that lie outside the current water service.  Kensington, Sage Hills and others lust after our water.
I have demonstrated that we do not have a water shortage and we now use less than the average per capita use for BC and Canada (systems under 50,000 users).  For details see other posts on this Blog.
  
The Comox and Electoral Area directors support the Water Restrictions and the Courtenay directors do not.  Let the directors know what you think.
