local lo provide this Information Do you feel municipal councillors lire underpaid overpaid or properly paid for their services 1 I believe the Halton Hills mayor and municipal councillors receive lion which is adequate and comparable that received in surrounding municipalities Whether or not the Mayor and Council lorn positions are properly paid depends on how well each particular Major or Councillor Is doing his or her job and the amount of time they devote to It MAYORS JOB 3 Do you see the mayoralty a a full time job In Hills What about regional councillors Jobs Area My experience has shown that the Increasing res ponsibilllles and complexities of the position demand a full time com The ration or a municipality the size of Hills with a budget In excess of can be nothing short of a full time job for the Mayor Do you accept council pre tent polk of holding lit meetings behind closed doom when personnel matters or isiucs involving ongoing lltlga lions are to be discussed not would you like to see policy dropped or amended HILL My position is and always has been that council meetings should be completely open to public When matters of Town personnel or ongoing litigation arc concern on the advice of Town solicitors meetings arc held in camera and I sec no reason in these circumstances only lo disregard that advice There Is no doubt that the confidential nature of some of Council deliberations require closed door meetings to to personnel or pre judice to Town position I would like lo see a much more definitive procedural by law so that the publics right to information
