Wellington County Council to Ponder Priorities
Wellington County council members will dedicate a half-day to a strategic planning session, facilitated by Warden George Bridge, sometime before June 30.
The move is a response to requests by some council members, notably Wellington North Mayor Andy Lennox and Centre Wellington Mayor Kelly Linton, for council to take a more active role in setting budget priorities.
Lennox led an unsuccessful push in January 2015 to delay passage of the 2015 budget in order to give new councillors time to get up to speed, and all councillors time to put their own priorities into the budget.
