Ownership still matters, even when others prefer it didn’t.

A property owner affected by the Croyde Bay situation, where long-held rights were unexpectedly challenged. Rather than rely on fragmented discussions, David has created a structured record of concerns, evidence, and correspondence to bring clarity and accountability to the situation.

Please note that David is using the PHC Port in development of this information as part of a wider initiative to bring the Water Industry to face its environmental responsibilities. It is wrong to choose fines over development in public safety issues just because the fine is cheaper! With this attitude, by the way, David will never get a job in the Water Industry. Hopefully a decision maker at government level will see this and start the process of getting PHC Service started as an industry regulator tool.
