Severance Cost FOI Update

I’ve scheduled this blog item to come on at 1:05 today so that certain staff/council could be somewhat blind-sided on camera.

This idea started last week when one of the NBH’s came into my office to pledge $50 to the severance salary disclosure FOI request. After the NBH left I got to thinking. Why wouldn’t the NBH’s cover the cost of the FOI request using their ‘discretionary funds’. This discretionary spending would then be reviewed by Council and the BH’s would be put in a position either accepting the discretionary spend (in & out on the Town’s books) or really looking bad by demanding repayment from those councillors.

I understand from other discussions that I had last week that a request to waive the $600 fee may come from the floor today. That could provide an interesting ‘discussion’.

Maybe someone who watches this afternoon can report on this item this evening.
