	Old and New

Contrasting the old ways of doing business with CityWest’s ‘new eyes’ CEO Bill Craig

Lots of good information and Reports given

Here I only mention the ‘highlights’ of a long and sometimes dull meeting

The above taken from Howie Report To Council

Here is the old way

Staff decides everything --- during meeting it was revealed ‘staff’ (the janitor?) believed spending the budgeted 500T$ to renovate RCMP cells was not best option – so went to bid process

Here is a new beginning

CityWest CEO William (Bill) Craig gave a quick synopsis of himself, his new company and where he sees the future to be

Northern View article gives good introduction to his talk – emphasising the new eyes with emphasis upon Customers and not ‘but that is the way we do things here’ type approach

Fresh Focus is summarized image left from Craig’s PPT

Hopefully the full presentation will be placed on CityWest web site --- my images are not very sharp

Build on present momentum – thus 2 new services to be activated by August etc

More detail later

More from looking to the future

	Back to ‘Business as Usual’ people
	Folks that is why they have elections

Plus there was actual disagreement with two 3 to 3 votes which Mayor had to decide ‘winner’ – more later

But question period was more utilized than ‘normal’

At left PR Environmental Society member Marty Bowles reminds Council Intervenor status for JRP Enbridge Enquiry deadline July 14^th

And potential Mayoralty candidate C Morhart asks for clarification on mayors new Emergency building site location – more later but none chosen nor preferred

	And meeting unusual too in number of times Nuisance used
	3 different Units ordered to be removed – Chris Procter was attending Council meeting to discuss his plans to renovate – but unable to wait the 2 hours until his agenda item came up – more later

	And it was a beautiful day/ evening
	Too bad we had to waste our ‘one day of summer’ in Council chamber --- more later
