This is the best summary I could come up with:


City clerk Aileen Giesbrecht told council that in her conversations with the commission, she understood that commissioners would not be attending because the letter spoke for itself.

Mayor Amarjeet Sohi said he appreciates the work of volunteer commissioners, but it was disappointing the commission’s professional staff were not there to answer questions.

Several councillors said during Tuesday’s meeting that seeing the audit plan would allow them to verify how public money is being spent.

Jo-Anne Wright said during the meeting that she thought the audit plan should be made public, “just to ensure that the dollars that we are funding are being used in the most efficient manner.”

“On June 6, 2024, the commission formally requested that council meet with the commission and an independent, third-party facilitator to improve our working relationship by examining the roles and responsibilities of councillors and commissioners so that we can move forward constructively for the benefit of all Edmontonians,” the statement said.

Asked about repairing the relationship between the commission and council, McFee said he sees his role as “trying to encourage everybody to get in their lanes.”


The original article contains 477 words, the summary contains 183 words. Saved 62%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!

If the police commission or the city paid for the audit, then it should be public as both those entities are funded by tax dollars.

The fuck any police commission should be able to refuse to release info like this.

“Nothing hidden”, except for, you know, the audit plan.

Right!?
