HOLD THE HORSES

Why does the Mayor and council seem to know what nebulous projects like "Southwest Corridor" are urgent and demanding of the taxpayers' contribution and debt. Why hasn't the PUBLIC BEEN INFORMED?

Where then is the debate to be conducted when millions of taxpayer money is being pledged to debt?
Why hasn't staff prepared press packets on projects to educate the public on the so-called emergency at hand?

It looks like the City Council is holding Daisy Chain Meetings and consulting between meetings or else how can they be fully informed to add to the agenda of Closed Door Meetings. Either they have been informed prior to the meeting, or they are making rushed decisions. Either case is not good governance and we may need to refine the Council and Mayorship even further, to put a stop to these kind of antics.
