Oh my, Fieldings 5 Point plan, there must be an election around the corner.
FIELDING’S FIVE-POINT PLAN:
1. Pass bylaw which prohibits tax increase above inflation, with council needing at least two-thirds support to increase taxes above inflation
2. Zero-based line-item budgeting to replace traditional budgeting
3. Spending oversight committee created to control spending and monitor expenditures before money is approved and released from treasury
4. Gain sharing with employees to find efficiencies
5. Transparent performance measurement scorecards of all city services and departments
