“Already, the minor works at the Courtenay Place and Cambridge Terrace intersection have hit a snag with infrastructure manager Brad Singh telling council of a five metre void found, raising questions of what will be unearthed when digging starts on the Golden Mile proper.”

WCC should not sign any contracts until a new, fiscally responsible and experienced council is elected.
