Lean and clean
Operational review concludes with recommendations for council and staff to act on
Kris Dubé The Times The consultant hired to conduct an operational review at Town Hall says there is room for some improvement, but gave the municipality what could be considered a passing grade. On Monday night, David Berger, from Western Management Consultants gave council a thorough presentation on the review he and his colleagues conducted. Twenty-five recommendations have been provided in the report that was approved unanimously by council. He referred to the Town of Fort Erie as a "lean" corporation. Berger says the Town of Fort Erie compared favourably to other municipalities of similar sizes and that staffing levels in some departments are below the norm. Summarizing his recommendations, Berger feels there is an opportunity to build stronger relationships between staff and council, which would improve staff morale and improve trust between both.
