july 13,2010 FOI results

Pleased to announce that all councilors and the mayor have filed very reasonable expense claims regarding the Olympic Party.....what the Freedom of Information request revealed is that there seemed to be a "culture of entitlement" that existed with some former staff....It might seem like small change if you are getting paid in excess of $100,000.00 a year but is it fair to ask the taxpayer to pay for "lunch meetings " at trendy restaurants ??
Still trying to sort out what went wrong with the grant application for the sewer system.....didn't get all the info I need yet.....
Perhaps council could form an audit committee to oversee spending issues....much like the Auditor-General at the federal level.....
