Tensions between the local service districts and the Mayors on the Fundy Regional Service Commission have boiled to the surface after just one meeting.
Commission chair Mayor Grace Losier of Grand Bay-Westfield tells CHSJ News there are bound to be growing pains with a brand new Commission.
Losier says the main goal of the Commission appears to be the provision of services to the local service districts but it would also like to eliminate, as much as possible, duplication of services with more collaboration in the region.
Losier says this new body has been legislated by the province and she assumes everyone on the commission is acting in good faith.
