The township is under a water boil advisory. They decided the way to inform people was on the website, through phone if you have a phone on your water account, through a system no one knew existed, or Facebook.
They’re offering a case of water per household for free though!
That announcement was only through Facebook. Great. All gone.
A competent state would go door to door, not make those affected constantly seek out this type of information. It is a basic public healtg failure.
My water district has 55,000 customers, many of whom won’t answer their doors thinking it’s a solicitor. Even if they did, you could have dozens of people going door to door and it would still take forever
You drive door to door leaving flyers. Small crowds of teenagers and college students do this for political campaigns. Why do you think municipal or county staff can’t drive, knock on doors, or drop flyers? You can easily do 100-200 houses per hour if it’s just flyers and no converdationd. You can do the whole thing in a day with 50 people.
It feels like you’d think the US Postal Service is an outlandish fairy tale. “They do what!? Drop of letters and packages to every address? That would take years!”
