Councillors take aim at staff hirings

The hiring of city staff is taking heat from our elected officials. At Tuesday night's budget meeting came to an end a couple of councillors made the case that with 80 percent of the budget coming from wages, maybe its time to stop the hiring of new staff. Councillor Aldo Ruberto says we keep hiring staff and putting it on the shoulders of the tax payers, maybe its time for a wage freeze. Councillor Ken Boshcoff also spoke up about staff numbers.
