MIRA LOMA CALIFONIA--TIRED OF DIRTY WATER FROM OUR FAUCETS

  • by: Danielle Jorgenson

I take care of my mother and father in a Mira Loma retirement community.  They live across the way from a water treatment center.  This is why this makes no sense to me.......the water that comes out of their faucet is rancid and dirty 90% of the time.  My cousin filled a water bottle today from my parents kitchen faucet to have some water while working out.  He suddenly noticed right off it had an off taste when his friend pointed out FLOATING CHUNKS IN THE BOTTLE.  This is typical of water here in Mira Loma and for all we know it could be harming all of us who drink it.  My mother has various health problems and is missing her left leg, she doesn't need this to add to her problems.  I implore trhe city of Mira Loma, the County of Riverside, the great state of California, the incredible Americans of the United States to not let the aged suffer a fate that could be further deotoriating their health.  Everyone deserves clean water to drink and cook with...................................................don't they?

I personally believe it is a travesty to let this go on.  We all need to stop toxins invade our water to improve our health.  So far admittedly there is no science saying the dirty water is harming us....but really is that the point?   Would you like to go to your kitchen for glass of crystal ice cold water....to find chunks of who knows what floating at the top of your glass just about every time??????  I know I don't.  And I do have to drink and bathe and cook with it when I'm staying or at my parents apartment.  It is insane to think this kind of water would or should be acceptable to anyone and I don't understand why no one has spoke up till me right now.  If the city just needs to HELP the community fix its water and drainage system, they need to.  If the county just needs to intervene and not let people potentionally get sicker they need to.  If the STATE needs to give aide to a developing mostly country-ish area with water, sewage, and drainage problems they need to do it.  It all starts with a name on this petition to show the district supervisor of our area we need to be spoken up for.  Please help me with this major injustice 60 miles east of Los Angeles, 9 miles west of Riverside proper.  It's just an ailing town, begining to develop.  But the people who even just come here don't need dirty water in their bodies.  It can't be healthy.  Thank you for your time and consideration to speak up for those who can not speak up for themselves, the aged.
