Brampton: City Hall and Credit Rating

brampton: Jeffrey brought in outside auditors to help clean up Brampton's finances after years of reckless spending and mismanagement under former mayor Susan Fennell, according to Toronto Star. She trimmed senior staff, cut her own salary and raised the city's credit rating. She hasn't solved all the problems, but she's made enough progress to have earned another four years from voters when they go to the polls on Monday. Beyond that, she's pushed to make city hall and Peel police more reflective of the area's population, which is more than 70 per cent visible minorities.
