Anton wants to reduce red tape and get housing projects approved fasterI'm told by sources within both the NPA and Vision camps that affordable housing and homelessness are some of the top issues of concern for Vancouverites. However, you'd never know that based on the media coverage coming out of NPA mayoral candidate Suzanne Anton's news conference yesterday. She used the opportunity to reveal a big portion of her party's housing and homelessness strategy.If an announcement is released in the forest and nobody was there to report on it, did it really have an impact? Based on the lack of headlines it would appear not - at least so far.Before I get into the details of Anton's announcement I want to be clear about one point. Any politician who tells you they have a plan to make Vancouver affordable is selling you snake oil

An internal memo shared with CityCaucus.com reveals deep unhappiness among exempt staff In August 2010 CityCaucus.com exclusively reported on how bad staff morale was at Vancouver City Hall. The story eventually made it on to the front page of the Vancouver Sun. We hope you enjoy this latest installment of our daily CityCaucus.com Redux series we''ll be running from now until the November 19th election.++++CityCaucus.com received a copy of a memo and survey that indicates a growing dissatisfaction among over 700 non-union staff working for the City of Vancouver. The memo dated June 15, 2010 is to the City's corporate management team and is signed by President Bill Boons and Vice-President Christine Warren on behalf of the members of the Vancouver Association of Civic Managerial and Professional Staff (VACMPS). The memo begins with a respectful tone describing a Citywide culture of respect, fairness and a workplace that "drew a clear and important line between administration and politics." However, the second paragraph goes on to say, "It is truly unfortunate that the environment noted above has changed." It says that "staff in all parts of the organization felt negatively affected by the new style of management." As a results VACMPS was asked "to stand up and present a strong and unified voice to senior management regarding both their concerns and their desire to work toward improvements." So low key is VACMPS that they barely appear in a Google search. A pair of memos going back to 2000, then the rest is coverage from CityCaucus.com last year. But recent grievances among exempt (non-union) staff forced VACMPS to reactivate its relationship with Vancouver's top brass: "Based on the wishes of our members and on our constitution, we believe that a more formal relationship with the employer is now necessary." The documents presented to CityCaucus.com are in two parts. A three-page letter, with a 15-slide PowerPoint presentation featuring survey results taken from over 70% of exempt staff, or 502 employees. The letter at times has a tone of despair: "It is also important that senior management is fully aware that the 700+ exempt staff are at risk of becoming disengaged." The memo states that "after 21 meetings with 225 exempt staff, VACMPS can identify some strong and consistent themes". These are: A loss of respect and trust throughout the organization; Managers have lost their ability to manage – decision-making has been centralized and many staff have resported being unable to provide good service; Inefficient and expensive processes have replaced methods which were cheaper and more efficient

many younger staff report that they are reconsidering their decision to build a career at the City
