- Contrary to what it's name might suggest, CSWVA does not represent all homes in Central Saanich West. According to its president, the association: "was formed to pursue the water main extension project and will likely cease to exist shortly"
- CSWVA followers and members state the proposed service is for an "old, fully developed community" of "existing homes." A very large new waterfront dwelling is currently under construction, as of September 10, 2008, at 507 Senanus.

- CSWVA regards a watermain as the only solution:
- "The solution is straightforward, not revolutionary, and would deliver safe quantities of water to the area in the same manner that 99% of Greater Victoria residents enjoy today." CSWVA Letter to CRD, May 2001
- "Our problems can be solved by a water main extension." CSWVA Letter to CRD, May 2001
- CSWVA Letter to CRD, Dec 2001 :Demands extension of the watermain as being the "most cost effective" long term solution. [ For Senanus Residents, it may be true that it is the most cost effective system, because 2/3 of the cost would be in effect subsidized by their neighbors on Mount Newton Crossroad, many of whom neither want nor need the system.]
