I just watched Barb Higgins' thoughts on the planning and development sector of city hall, proving to me that she has no idea what's actually going on in city hall. She wants to streamline the departments, make sure that things don't get held up by city hall.

There's just one problem with that. Bronconnier already implemented pretty harsh timelines (ie they counts weekends) on the planning department, instituted the CPAG business office to babysit the planners and make sure they're meeting their timelines, but the biggest holdup is typically with the applicant. So the planners get trouble from CPAG because the application isn't meeting the timelines, but they're waiting for a response from the applicant.

How exactly do you streamline that?
