Candidates should give positions on water system
On Aug. 8, Emmaus Borough Council heard citizens' concerns about the proposed privatization of the water system. The residents who attended and spoke acted out of trust in their local government — trust in the elected officials' sincere desire to respect and represent their need to maintain local control of the water system. Such trust should be reciprocated.
By Oct. 1, each member of the current borough council, as well as each candidate running for council in November, should announce the solution to the water system dilemma that he or she intends to support. Each should also include his or her rationale. The statements need to be unambiguous, clear and individual. If their reasons are sound, the candidates and board members may trust the Emmaus voters to make responsible choices.
