On behalf of Council, I'm pleased to announce the appointment of Nyla Attiana to the position of Chief Administrative Officer (CAO) for the District of Tofino.

So if this is the best Tofino can do for a CAO we are in trouble...taxes will be increased and critical thinking will hit an all time low at the DOT. What exactly has this CFO do to warrent the praise of our Mayor? Very Lazy decision by Council, Staff, and Mayor to put it in simple terms.
ReplyDeleteNyla has been in Tofino for a while and knows what’s going on . Also has a place to live and has her family in the community. I was worried that one of our previous CAOs might return.
ReplyDeleteThis is fantastic news. Congrats to Nyla. She will do an amazing Job.

ReplyDeleteIf you think Nyla is an underperformer then remember she is executing councils plans. That is where the underperformance lies. Near four years now for this lot and what fundamental issues have been resolved. Council is the major disappointment. Pretty much every issue has got worse.
ReplyDeleteCoulda been worse..... they coulda got a guy from planning or community sustainability....
ReplyDeleteCoulda functioned fine without a CAO. Been doing it for years.
ReplyDeleteReading the Westerly article, it sounds like we are in for more hiring. "Rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic" springs to mind. They are making a concerted attack on making a concerted attack. One step forward, two steps back, seven steps sidewise. More bureaucrats, more cost, more internal focus, less action. I guess you could call it problem avoidance. Where are the practical folks who solve problems. Used to run the place. Used to run the country. Now it is the "budgets balance themselves" crowd who are setting the priorities.
ReplyDeleteAt your expense
So my question is how many Nightly VR Suites does the new CAO and her partner own? Have they declaired this clear conflict of intrest....MR Mayor?
ReplyDeleteNot a conflict of interest. Many staff have VRs and multiple properties.
