PETERS – Filtering the noise from the more significant problems at City Hall

WITH KAMLOOPS COUNCIL slowing down a little bit for the summer months, now seems like a good time to look back and take stock.
The summer slowdown is not as dramatic as it used to be, mind you, with two meetings each now scheduled in July and August. That’s about on par with the schedule for the rest of the year.
With such a cacophony emanating from City Hall over the first nine months of this term, it’s necessary to differentiate between what is actual dysfunction that needs to be worked out and what is just noise.
Clearly, council and the mayor are not friends. But we didn’t elect them to be friends; we elected them to work cohesively to make our city a better place.

Maybe it’s time for a by election for all of them in the fall
