Huron East begins second review in three years
Huron East will begin its service
delivery review, in a way, next
month when council begins
reviewing its previous service
delivery review.
After being faced with the ever-
escalating costs associated with
running three recreation centres, two
of which were significantly over
budget in 2014, and ongoing Ontario
Municipal Partnership Fund
(OMPF) cuts, several councillors
requested a service delivery review.
This comes just two years after the
municipality carried out a service
delivery review, however, very few,
if any, actions came out of the 2013
review.
Council has committed to hiring
an outside consultant to review the
municipality’s level of service and to
search for potential efficiencies
going forward.
New councillors, however, felt
that in order to stand on the same
level playing field as councillors
who were in office for the 2013
review, there needed to be a
comprehensive review of the
previous review, to ensure that
everyone was up to speed.
Councillor Ray Chartrand led the
discussion, saying it was unfair to
councillors first elected to office last
fall to comment on service delivery
alongside councillors who had been
through a similar review in 2013.
While Chartrand and Mayor
Bernie MacLellan have butted heads
over the issue in previous meetings,
councillors agreed they would spend
several meeting hours, rather than
MacLellan’s suggestion that new
councillors catch up on the 2013
review on their own time, re-visiting
the review of two years ago.
At council’s July 7 meeting, Chief
Administrative Officer Brad Knight
said that the review will begin next
month, as Treasurer Paula Michiels
will be absent for council’s
scheduled July 20 meeting.
