I'm not sure notifying the public about a survey on the last Friday before Christmas is going to help boost the confidence of the people who already don't trust the independent review into this summer's wildfires in Saskatchewan.

This just passed. City council cut its heritage grant program in half. It was told the program is already overprescribed meaning more people want the money.

Councillors also seemed to fundamentally not understand that money in the grant program is used for maintenance to MAINTAIN heritage status.
Mancinelli says that a lot of the heritage spending is going to general maintenance not heritage preservation. He says it should be there to replace heritage features. But not to clean eavestroughs. #yqrcc

I've repeated this at nauseum. So has city administration. But choosing the political expediency of no mill rate increases or mill rate increases below inflation only pushes the bill down the road. It doesn't make the need for money disappear.
Cantello: I've been working at the city a long time. Every year with the budget, we cut a few percent here and there. Well, turns out, you needed all that funding. Regina is a hard place to have a city. #yqrcc

Cantello: This is an adjustment year. You can go back to the original sin of Pat Fiacco. Putting in zero percent mill rate years. Inflation always exists. You have to raise mill rate as long as there is inflation. 15% represents year's of backlog. #yqrcc

Cantello: By the same logic, the budget you've been presented with is in the same condition. It's like council has been out for a fine dinner and now that the bill has come you're saying, I don't want to pay for half of this. #yqrcc
