Small parties. Big demands.
Can parties with just a handful of council seats hold an entire city to ransom?

This exposes years of poor planning and weak by-law enforcement.
The City must help vulnerable households while protecting surrounding communities.

“There are still a number of questions to be answered."
Will it just be effluent or will it also be targeting companies that throw in trash, rubble, tyres and old diesel?
Is it connected to the Department’s pollution hotline?
