In about an hour at 6:00pm today, Williams Lake Council is meeting behind closed doors to discuss items suitable for discussion In-Camera in accordance with Section 90(1)(a) of the Community Charter which says:
a) personal information about an identifiable individual who holds or is being considered for a position as an officer, employee or agent of the municipality or another position appointed by the municipality
Then on Tuesday, November 23rd at 5:30pm, Williams Lake Council will once again meet behind closed doors to discuss items for discussion In-Camera, in accordance with Sections 90(1)(a) and (c) of the Community Charter which says:
a) personal information about an identifiable individual who holds or is being considered for a position as an officer, employee or agent of the municipality or another position appointed by the municipality
c) labour relations or other employee relations
Given I believe in Open Government, I feel that the community has a right to this information. Again - I hope the community is always made aware when Council is meeting in a open session and when it is meeting behind closed doors and why?
But certainly, this Council is getting a reputation on making secretive decisions without consulting the community (Heritage House lease to CMHA) and having more In-Camera meetings' then its' precedessor Councils'
