Wednesday, November ".2007 THE CITY OF WATERLOO SEEKS VOLUNTEERS FOR Ill-HOME LEAD TESTING .For many years, the C ity of Waterloo has anno- ally tested for lead within the City of Water- loo's Distribution System, Now, new Provin- cial Regulations require additional lead testing to be completed at several private residences across the City every six months. We are looking for volunteers to allow us into their homes once every 6 months to test for lead in the drinking water. The testing is simple, it only takes a short time and all lab. oratory results will be communicated direct- tr to you. The focus of this testing is for homes built before I955 but some testing may also be need- ed for homes built between I955 and 1989, For more information please visit our website at www.citywaterlooon.ca, If you are interested in being placed on a lead sampling volunteer list, please call: 5 l9-747-86l3 For more general information on 'Lead in Drinking Water'. refer to the Public Health Pages at www.regiort.watertooamxa . or call Waterloo Region Public Health at 519-883-2008.

Waterloo Ontario. The 2008 budget for water and sewer services, which reflects the projected cost of providing water and wastewater services in 2008, is available free of charge at the C lerk"s Office, Main Floor, l00 Regina Street South, Waterloo. The recommended increase is necessary to offset a projected increase in Regional wholesale rates as well as to fund the various projects that the City is undertaking for the purpose of enhancing water quality and improving wastewater services, The fees and charges pro- posed in the by-law will not exceed the cost of providing the water and sanitary sewer system to City residents.
