www.mississaugawatch.ca COUNCILLOR CAROLYN PARRISH: And unfortunately and I guess we don't give anybody instructions around here but, I would have felt much more comfortable had we had a detailed breakdown of the anticipated costs from the Mayor's lawyer. Saying, this is what we anticipate. These are the hours of preparation. These are the hours of questioning. These are the hours we anticipate to be in the Inquiry. Sending a letter kind of whining about the other Councillors doesn't impress me and this makes me just a little bit nervous. I think Councillor Iannicca said it well. He said if you give them 0000 you've set a target, not a, not a, you know, a reasonable goal. So, the other thing that, I mean, we're over, we're in [sic] a rock and a hard place because the Mayor's requests, we have no choice but to accept it. I'm not doing it with a great deal of enthusiasm, I'll tell you. This cost is very very high and I think the Mayor herself will have to explain this to the taxpayers. I'm not going to try. But given the position we're in, if you were to say no, there would be an immediate application for a judicial review and the whole thing would come to a halt. MISSISSAUGAWATCH whispers into camera: That's right. CITY SOLICITOR MARY ELLEN BENCH: That is certainly quite possible —an application to the Commissioner. It's been my recommendation that you do approve the request, yes. COUNCILLOR CAROLYN PARRISH: Thank you.
