Common Council Not Ready to Switch To New Form Of City Government

Common Council has heard all the good things about how well the committee form of city government works in Fredericton but is it ready to take the plunge?

Former Mayor Shirley McAlary, now a Councillor at Large, is willing to give it a shot on a trial basis for six months beginning in January to see how it works.

Common Council decided to hold off making any decision as three Councillors, John McKenzie, David Merrithew and Donnie Snook, were not on hand.

It also wants to get more information from the City Manager.
