I see that reading comprehension is not your strong suit. Everyone's wages (honorarium) is stated in the article, which by the way was the main topic.

You are more than welcome to run in the next Municipal election and see if you can do a better job. Handling citizen complaints and running a city takes a lot of background work. I am willing to bet that you have never attended an ENTIRE council meeting nor any of the multitude of other committee meetings (Police Board, Library Board, Downtown Association Board, Planning and Minor Variance Board, Recreation Board, etc. etc. ) that councillors and the Mayor must attend. It takes a lot of evening time away from your evening personal life during the month. But hey being a keyboard warrior, maybe you should donate your "spare time" for all the unappreciative people who are clueless as to what it takes to run a city? I am a councillor in another adjacent municipality for the last 16 years... so I know what is involved.

You are not thinking about the correct impact here.... The liner probably uses 1/10th the amount of plastic a normal bottle would. My concern would be how many more trees will we need to cut down to supply the paper? Or are they going to use a fast growing wood like bamboo for the pulp required?

The less involvement the government has in development, the better off you will be. You can't prevent anyone with the required money from buying real estate. There are municipal bylaws that everyone must follow and there are penalities for non-compliance including expropriation for incurred costs... so there is a system in place.

More reason to buy my beer ("Imported" Canadian Beer at that) in the USA and bring it back over.

Yeah ok "Bad Spot".... It's right by Shopping Malls(s), Grocery stores, restaurants, a college, a library etc. You sound like a NIMBY? Perfect location for apartments, especially for people who don't drive or have mobility issues like seniors. People need to live somewhere.

Shoemaker better "potentially transform" the potholes, roadside brushing, and ditching in front of my house first.... Our core infrastructure, our roads, need to be prioritized at a higher level.... Not just the street in front of his house.
