Thank you all for responding to the survey. We appreciate your
attention to the issue. We will be running more surveys on other
topics in the future.
The survey ran over the last few weeks concerning the proposed sewer
implementation on the north side of the Saugeen River. We asked a
simple question that required only a yes or no answer. That is,
are you for sewers on the north shore of the Saugeen River? We also
asked if the respondent lived inside or outside the area to be served by
sewers.
Please note the survey removed all multiple votes by the same
responder. .

full amt.
