Water Committee Voting Weights

------------ update --------------
This is a closed issue but I leave it here to point out that the WC wasted money on lawyers dealing with a topic that could have easily been resolved.  They just didn't want to admit that they had been doing in wrong for more than 10 years.
----------- earlier post follows ------------
This topic will be coming up at the Jan. 24, 2012 meeting of the Water Committee [agenda here].  Debra Oakman the CAO is recommending that the issue be referred to the Supreme Court of BC.  I think that spending more money on lawyers is not sensible.  More consideration should be made to my interpretation.

Here are some documents to explain the voting issue:
  • emails of trying to get the CVRD to apply correct weights [here]
  • Voting weight history from 1994 study, to Letters Patent and as applied by CVRD [here]
  • PowerPoint presentation to the City of Courtenay urging them to demand proper voting weights at the Water Committee [here].
  • What I feel the weights should have been for past years [here]
