Please note - Natalie Hebert resigned her seat in July of 2011 and Tom Barr did not seek re-election in last November's civic elections
Councillor Rathor will have some explaining to do to account for his $9,596.58 in submitted expenses. I think if one accounts for $5,000 for FCM in Halifax, $2,000 for UBCM in Vancouver and $1,000 for the NCLGA Conference in Prince Rupert (even with car pooling), that still leaves roughly $1,000 unaccounted for....
Update - June 16th at 4:48pm - Councillor Rathor has called me to clarify that travel and related expenses to FCM are accounted for in a separate budget line and don't count towards the $5,000 travel budget line that the 6 City of Williams Lake Councillors' have access to

$35,000 in two years!!!!!! Someone needs to explain how the CAO spent that much in expenses in two years. That is unbelievable.
That is more then most of us was able to take home to our families.
Mayor and Council have some serious explaing to do. WTH!!!!
