The Concerned Citizens' Coalition released its new 10 point 'Recovery Plan Victoria 2008' on September 21, 2008.

Public perusal of the CCC's Recovery Plan Victoria 2008 is available at the Concerned Citizens' Coalition Weblog ('CCC Blog') located here:
http://gregoryhartnell.wordpress.com/.

Taxes, spending, hiring and accountability are addressed in Point No. 1 of our Recovery Plan Victoria 2008, which reads as follows:

'1. TAX, HIRING AND SPENDING FREEZE IN FIRST FISCAL YEAR

Residential and commercial property taxes, and hotel room taxes should be frozen in the first fiscal year of the newly-elected Victoria City Council, complemented by mediated negociation and resolution of fair, non-inflationary contracts with the Canadian Union of Public Employees, the Firefighters' and the Police Officers' Unions.

Hiring and spending freezes at City Hall and at the Victoria Police Department should also complement these new accountable fiscally prudent non-inflationary measures.'
