Sullivan Says Worst-Case Budget Plan is Wise

When you find yourself in a hole, stop digging.....That's the advice from Councillor Gary Sullivan. He and Councillor Patty Higgins are pushing for a budget plan in case the province denies proposed pension reform packages. 

Several councillors objecting to the worst case budget plan, saying any time taken away from getting those reforms is time wasted.

However, Sullivan tells CHSJ News it's the only smart option, because  if reforms get turned down at the legislature in June, there needs to be something there for the new council.  

City Manager Pat Woods will come up with the plan by March 31st but he warns any more cutting and the city will find it tough, if not impossible, to operate.
