What should be the priorities for spending $1 Billion ($1000 Million) on Victoria’s Environment?
Many suggestions have been made which all together would cost a lot less than a Billion Dollars: improvements to the source control program (including its extension to residences and storm-water drains), an end to the existing inflow, infiltration, and cross connection problems in our antiquated sewers, major upgrades to the storm-water system, a cleaned-up Inner Harbor, more green space, expanded recycling. And there would be lots left over for better health care facilities, housing for the homeless, a local light rail system, and other worthy projects.
