The Cobourg Taxpayers Association (CTA) presented some key recommendations on the Town budget process.
Some of the key highlights of the CTA submission:
On September 1st, Lydia Smith wrote a letter to Cobourg asking for an explanation of why the Town’s staffing in the Parks and Recreation departments had grown much faster than the Town had grown. Mayor Gil Brocanier immediately declared it to be factually wrong and then on October 19, CAO Stephen Peacock wrote an official response.
The CTA made its first submission to Council on September 28, 2015. Town staff had prepared a Municipal Community Grants Policy and was recommending adopting the policy at the Committee of the Whole meeting that evening. Dennis Nabieszko, Secretary of the CTA, made a presentation to Council noting that the proposed policy was inadequate and lacking in many areas.
The Cobourg Taxpayers Association made their first presentation to Cobourg Council on September 28, 2015 on the new Municipal Community Grants Policy.
Written submission and the presentation can be viewed at Submissions to Council.
