Open Letter Urges Water for St Albans Shadows of Delay Hit Hope
A letter to Victorian leaders questions why St Albans, ten miles from Melbourne, lacks a water supply after seven years of Water Trust effort. It argues for government loan help or unemployment relief funding to complete a life improving project, citing local hardship and health risks. The letter notes public disappointment after a state department’s communication and appeals for timely action.
