Edmonton city council will try to get back to its normal business Monday. At least as normal as it can get with its regular meeting taking place amid all other regular committees cancelled during the novel coronavirus pandemic, and only five of them attending in the council chamber while the rest take part via a conference call.
What is bothering Ward 11 Coun. Mike Nickel is a lack of reporting ahead of the meeting on the COVID-19 response. The agenda for Monday’s meeting normally would be published last Thursday, but it was not made public until Friday evening after the close of regular business.
Nickel wants to raise questions about financial shortfalls for groups that are associated with the city, but the info is not available, he said.
