Councillors shouldn’t be allowed to put their names on plaques paid for with
city money, says a report outlining sweeping changes to the city’s
cash-for-parks policy. The proposed changes come months after the Citizen
reported that River Coun. Riley Brockington had no money in his ward’s special
account for park upgrades because his predecessor, Maria McRae, emptied the
account in her final year in office, spending more than $600,000 in 2014. via
