Dear Editor,
I am writing this letter with disgust because I am fed up complaining to GWI concerning the sewerage system overflow in the Stevedore Scheme area.
Since last year we have been experiencing this problem and were complaining. They came once about two weeks ago and flushed out two boxes. I told the man that what he did wouldn’t help because those boxes were for people whose system was not running over. He promised to come back the next day, but up to now he hasn’t done so. We are living in filth day and night, and I believe this thing will make us sick.
I am an old woman and this is unbearable for me and the entire neighbourhood. Could the relevant authorities do something to help us out of this dilemma.
Yours faithfully,
Rowena Alkins
