That&#8217;s not democratic.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>The director-general&#8217;s office and the post of deputy director-general have been vacant since the previous incumbents, Ga\u00e9tan Turbide and Jean Roberge stepped down officially Aug. 9, in the wake of accusations before the Charbonneau Commission of misdeeds at city hall. <\/p>\n<p>The municipal commission has also authorized the creation of a new public communication department for the city, headed by a director who will be paid an annual salary exceeding $153,000. <\/p>\n<p>Gob\u00e9 indicated that the municipal commission has mistaken previous political malfeasance for bad management. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe city of Laval has been well run and continues to enjoy a top AAA bond rating,\u201d he observed, contrasting it favourably with financially strapped Montreal, which Moody&#8217;s rates as much riskier, at Aa2. <\/p>\n<p>He noted that the current city council, though composed entirely of former members of previous mayor Gilles Vaillancourt&#8217;s political party, had agreed to leave the hiring of key officials and the budget to whomever is elected, Nov. 3. <\/p>\n<p>Gob\u00e9 agreed that he sees a manipulative Parti Qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois hand moving in a municipal commission glove. He added that he wrote to Municipal Affairs Minister Sylvain Gaudrault, earlier that day, demanding that he halt the hiring process. <\/p>\n<p>Two other mayoral hopefuls, Robert Bordeleau (Parti au Service du citoyen) and Marc Demers (Mouvement lavallois) also slammed the municipal commission&#8217;s encroachment, though Demers, like his opponent Claire Le Bel (Option Laval) was more nuanced about interference in the city&#8217;s budget process. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cMovement lavallois can live with an imposed budget,\u201d he said in a statement. \u201cThere&#8217;s no problem whatsoever with the trustees adopting it.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Demers did observe that although much of the budget comprises fixed costs like salaries and payments of principal and interest payments on the city&#8217;s debt, he&#8217;s still concerned about the portion of the budget that the administration allocates to projects initiated by city council. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf they go ahead with this, we expect them to do so in a way that respects the ability of our citizens to pay and the fact that that the next, democratically elected administration will have to make decisions on behalf of Laval citizens,\u201d Demers declared.<\/p>\n<div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/-TFtABgby7RY\/Ukw8sT3V9AI\/AAAAAAAABCE\/nNywFrfBP6M\/s1600\/130923+Jean-Claude+Gobe%CC%81+-+Action+Laval+news+conference.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" height=\"240\" src=\"http:\/\/rf.podcastfixit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/130923-Jean-Claude-Gobe\u0301-Action-Laval-news-conference.jpg\" width=\"320\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<b>Jean Claude Gob\u00e9 (left) demanded that city&#8217;s administration be accountable to elected officials, not civil servants.
