Council is contemplating on making the switch, which would have various councillors sitting on 5 major committees that deal with major issues like transportation and city growth.
Councillor Donnie Snook was upset because he wanted more information before moving forward.
He say he wants to know how transparent and accessible the new form of government would be for citizens.
He adds it's ironic that the new system is being touted as more transparent for everyone yet he is lacking key details about the process.
Council voted in favour of asking representatives from the city of Fredericton to make a presentation to the city as it currently uses a standing committee system.
