78,000 people live in WCC. 9 of 13 councillors voted to reduce FORTNIGHTLY Monday night meetings to once a month. Generally Meetings close at 10.30PM. I support Cr Saville in opposing this change. It is symptomatic of a dumbing down of Local Government.

By limiting discussion to once a month there will be more to do in less time and quality of work will suffer. I wonder if the decision revolves around money entitlements to councillors. There must be a case for a review of remuneration if that is the case. It is important for all aspects of the City to be properly managed.
