Common council is moving to change the way it compensates senior management — specifically the city manager. Council has rescinded a 2002 motion which gave the city manager a special pension top up. And council is asking the province to amend the municipalities act so it can set the term of employment for senior management types. Mayor Ivan Court says the rescinding the pension motion won’t have any impact on former city manager Terry Totten’s deal — but — he says both moves will allow the city to begin with a clean slate in negotiating for Totten’s replacement.
