I have been a resident of this area for 55 years, (all my life) ,and i have never seen our city be in such a crisis. It had only been within the past 10 years that we have started to see a decline, and i strongly believe it is the cause of over development. For every house or apartment building that is constructed it sucks more and more water from our supply that cannot be replenished fast enough. We have to do something about it before we go totally dry. Stop worrying about bringing in more tax dollars a fix what we have first.

Water shortage is obviously a huge problem. However, in addition, I'm troubled the lack of green space. In off Clifton, where a developer was approved for three houses but u guess when no one was paying attention, he got the plans altered and has now snuck five houses in the space. It's so crowded! What once was a lovely wooded area is now clear cut and full of trendy farmhouse style homes. It's awful!

The current water issues have impacted so many families both physically and financially. Water is a basic necessity, safe water even more of a necessity. The inability to use water that we already pay for is insane and the fact that we have to go buy more water to cover for your mistakes is even worse. Not to mention that there are people who are stuck drinking tap water and who can’t afford to buy it because taxes and inflation is so high. Have you thought of the long term financial impact the city will incur when we all die of a disease from drinking the water. It’s just a matter of time before the law suits start because it will be linked. By building up Attleboro as quick as you did put all of us in jeopardy. Not to mention the impact that this has had on our police department, our school system, wildlife, our health. This isn’t about just water. This is about the whole picture. Stop building, it’s not sustainable and we don’t need anymore people.
