The undersigned individuals, as residents of the County of Orange, oppose any Federal and/or State funding for the proposed water pipeline connecting the Village of Kiryas Joel into the New York City aqueduct system without further investigation as to the need for, benefits to and impact on the residents of the southeastern portion of Orange County and Orange County as a whole.

The quiet from the Governor's office remains persistent despite the growing reach of our concerns. I am currently reviewing the latest environmental assessments to better understand the long term consequences for our local water supply.

Reaching this level of community engagement confirms that many of us share the same concerns regarding the proposed water pipeline. This momentum demonstrates a collective desire for transparency and careful study before any public funds are committed to the project.

Do your jobs and look out for the actual residents of this county for once. Seriously frustrated by this whole process.

Taxpayers should not be paying for this. Stop wasting our money on projects that only help one village at the expense of everyone else.

Why is this even being considered? The impact on our local environment and our own water supply needs to be studied first. NO PIPELINE.

Enough with the special treatment. The rest of us in Orange County have to deal with our own water issues and we dont have a pipeline to the city waiting for us.

This is total nonsense. They keep building and building and now they want us to foot the bill for their water? Leave our aqueduct alone.
