I'm very concerned that a few homeowners can have such a large impact on fountains at Silver Lake. From what I understand, the homeowners are concerned about contaminated water spraying on them and their property. The water has been tested multiple times and proven to be safe, and their argument of contamination is ridiculous. If the water was contaminated, then why would they still live there and have sitting areas on the water's edge? The fountains have been a beautiful part of the lake and I find it very disappointing that a few homeowners don't like them.

Rehoboth elected officials, can you please use science and common sense to turn them back on for everyone's enjoyment?
