I understand that new toilets are nessary as they save monies on utilities..so check with the tax payer first because believe me I will be going there finding out how much is going to be spent on changing those out.

There are just as effective and far less costly ways to filter potable water like Glenfield Microstrainers. I know!

The are NOT. There are a couple who are with it, thoughtful ,and in tune with present times. Also, they put the citizens of Nanaimo first. The rest should be thrown out quickly. Some are so terrible it is a pity we cannot turf them out immediately. It seems that some who "work'for the City should have gone a long time ago.

JILL SWEETT [Signature #158] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/10972359?utm_medium=rss Most buildings in the downtown Nanaimo area are not earthquake proof already, so why does the city hall people think they are special? I feel that $$ should be spend more on maybe a renovation to the existing building and park allocation around the city for all to enjoy ie. like the recent Maffeo Sutton upgrade - Wonderful job!

History has shown time and again these high earners do not make good decisions. Hire people with feet on the ground, people who can relate to the cost and ability to pay for upgrades and new projects. Their wages will give them a personal idea of what is affordable.
