Councillors trying out pilot project limiting questions

Council has approved a pilot project for two months limiting the number of questions a city councilor can ask the public and administration.  Most councillors were in favour of the change, but Councillor Rebecca Johnson was not.  Johnson says she asks questions that she knows the answers to for the benefit of the public.  Meanwhile, council voted down a resolution limiting how long a council meeting can run.   Many felt most meetings should go past 11:30 if it warrants it.
