Dear Editor
The City of North Battleford has made the biggest blunder since they agreed to build the white elephant. Parking lots are the issue.
The City in its great wisdom has decided to sell off the parking lots downtown. That's fine. Obviously they need the money because they have put the City up to the maximum allowed debt by the provincial government. I understand that. However, who made the decision to close all of them at the same time? That has to be the dumbest decision this government has made in a long time.
Why couldn't they have closed one and done their soil tests, open it up again then move on to the next and so on. No, some person, who should be chastised immediately made the decision to shut them all at the same time. What is the matter with these people? Are they so secure in their job that they can make these kind of decisions with no accountability.
Well, Mr. Hamilton, maybe it's about time you had a talk to your employees and remind them that when they do their job it has to be at the least problems to the public. This is not the case with this decision.
But, does he care? Obviously not. What a shame.
