As senior City of Winnipeg officials investigate allegations some city workers may have been slacking off on the job, a movement is underway at city hall to make sure the findings from that probe see the light of day.

“The allegations appear to be credible, so I certainly support a reporting on the investigation,” said Scott Gillingham, St. James councillor,

The Assiniboia community committee has moved a motion forward to the mayor's executive policy committee, to ensure city council is given a full and detailed report of the investigation's findings.

“There's a lot of things that don't come forward and I just want it on the record. I have a lot of citizens asking me, I want a report on what's going on," said Janice Lukes, Waverley West councillor.

Lukes authored the motion.

"If these allegations are true, something has to change, right. So it will help us determine what needs to change in the way monitoring occurs, management occurs," said Lukes.

The probe was launched after a group of homeowners, contractors and businesses say they hired a private investigator to follow city property inspectors. The investigator alleges more than a dozen inspectors were caught on video using work hours to do personal activities, like shopping and long lunch breaks.

"I want to see it thoroughly investigated. I want to see appropriate measures taken, including, if it's appropriate, termination of employment," said Mayor Brian Bowman Tuesday.

It's not known how much of the investigation and what if any disciplinary measures can be made public. On Friday the city said depending on what it finds, it's unclear how much information will be released as it doesn't typically comment on human resource matters.

It also released this statement on the committee motion:

"In regards to the motion that was put forward by the Assiniboia community committee… we will await further direction from council before determining how to proceed on the requests made in the motion."

Gillingham, who sits on the Assiniboia committee and EPC, says it's simple, he wants to see as much information released as possible.

“The expectation is what can be made public and what's relevant to be made public should be made public,” said Gillingham,

The motion calls for the findings to be released in 30 days following the completion of the investigation. The city expects the probe to be done in the coming weeks.
