Consultants too costly (From York Press)

• "Let's hope that Bill Woolley's replacement does a better job than he did. He is leaving a sinking ship. Having being behind so many bungled strategies;
  1. The disasterous affordable housing policy that has killed housebuilding and caused irreparable damage to York's economy.
  2. Spending £5million on the botched aborted Hungate office location.
  3. Spending £43million on the new palatial council offices that are bigger than they need.
  4. Selling hos Oakgate mates a planning permission for £14.85m, and using it to bail out a private company - YCFC.
  5. Making a botch of the Core Strategy that has been slated by the planning inspector.
  6. Sanctioning hundreds of thousands in consultancy fees, whilst his overpaid 'city strategy' staff formulate damaging policies.
  
  Now announcing his retirement, at 60 (hard done by public sector worker my a*se), before the sh*t hits the fan ?
  
  Good riddance to 'Bungling Bill' ,"
