Drought

Should we wait until we move the pipes and pumps at Lake Lanier into the "sludge" areas and start pumping out the heavy metals and diseases and mosquitoes, or should we now be planning and implementing immediately ways to get more water here now? The likelihood of that swamp water being treated well enough to drink is questionable.
Start the trucks now from areas that have water. Dig numerous wells, now, and pipe them to reservoirs, now.
Ration water now.
Don't wait until everything is shut down and people have lost all of their jobs and businesses, do it NOW!
Borrow the money just as Washington does, and promise not to have to do that again.
Start charging twice as much for water used over one-half of past years experience. Charge three times as much for water used that equals last year's usage.
It is NOT going to rain enough over the next four months to prevent outage--the odds are about 50 to 1.
Forget not getting elected next time---do what needs done.

As far as the water drought is concern I have done my part in cut backs. But it puzzles me when I ride down Sandy Creek and the Pastors water fountain is running full blast like he is exempt from the law???? My husband went to PTC library and their fountain is dry. So why does the upscale pastor get to run his??? HHHMMMMM.... :{
