Council facilitator isn’t providing value

Local taxpayers are going to pay upwards of $100,000 to a facilitator to help Mayor Bill McKay get along with city councillors.

To the Editor,

Re: Council relations work in progress, Sept. 22.

So, let me get this straight, the local taxpayers, through municipal taxes, are going to pay upwards of $100,000 to a facilitator to help Mayor Bill McKay get along with city councillors. Who hired this person? McKay. See a theme here? To top it off neither McKay nor the councillors can say if there has been any improvement. That’s what $100,000 gets you when a politician is involved – nothing.
