The Mayor of Rossland Greg Granstrom admits he shoulders some of the responsibility for the serious financial issues at City Hall. The Auditor General for Local Government wrote a scathing report into a lack of management controls and monitoring on some capital projects …but added council oversight could be strengthened.

He insists the City’s action plan has strengthened the finance department and a policy that gave sweeping authority to the Chief Administrative Officer is being amended.
