Vernon's mayor has shrugged off accusations that the city wants to control Greater Vernon water. The issue of water devolution is in the hands of an arbitrator. Mayor Wayne Lippert is hopeful the water devolution controversy can be resolved sometime in 2010. In a year-end interview with SUN-FM, Lippert also denied the issue had harmed relations with Coldstream council. Coldstream council has provisionally budgeted 100-thousand dollars for legal fees. Lippert says the city has not budgeted any extra funds for arbitration.
