To the editor,
Re: Commercial Street revitalization plan anticipated, July 28.
Much like Curious George, I’m still wondering just why the City of Nanaimo continues to automatically hire very costly consultants – especially at $150,000 of the Nanaimo taxpayers’ money – instead of just using the planning department along with input from the Commercial Street business owners and the local residents, which makes a lot more sense.
If the City of Nanaimo was a private corporation, it would be their money, but since it’s public money it should be spent wisely.
