Not in Calgary, I'm sure, but folks might be shocked and alarmed at the disfunction that exists in some municipal councils around Alberta. There are several government-commissioned reviews in progress or yet to start that were ordered for various reasons. My experience is that the smaller municipalities like the counties and smaller towns are more likely to err than the larger, more sophisticated municipalities. Some of these transgressions are like this one - public bickering (or worse). Local councillors are keeping these consultants busy.
