What is the effect on Esquimalt if the sewage plant is built at McLoughlin Point?
It is a small piece of land behind DND with no public access. It is almost unusable except for this purpose.
How is the building of the plant at this point going to affect the City of Victoria? It will be located at the entrance of Victoria harbour – a nice first impression.
The prevailing winds from the southwest will also blow any odours toward the provincial capital. The inhabitants of high rises in James Bay and along the Songhees will get the best view overlooking this monument.
It may be wise for the council of Victoria to review the map to see who is the most affected.
