We always felt that our citizens shared our commitment to finding the problem and getting it corrected so that Reidsville's reputation as being environmentally responsible would be recognized. Mayor Jay Donecker stated that Reidsville must remain vigilant in its efforts to maintain water quality. With the lifting of this moratorium, it is the first time in 12 years that Reidsville has been completely out from underneath any regulatory restrictions. Each of these regulatory instruments limited our ability to accept additional wastewater treatment into our system, in spite of our investment of major dollars into our wastewater system. City officials will continue to monitor the wastestream diligently as they seek to bring more economic development to the area.
Financial reports show just how much the taxpayers are spending to keep it going.
We are trying to pull some teeth to get a break down on these expenses.
