The Blunder of 2007 Title was a close contest but after an exhaustive tabulation of votes our Bean Counters and lawyers Dewy, Cheetum and Howe have certified that Coldstream Council has received 75% of the ballots cast and win the Prestigous Dumb as a Dodo Political Blunder Trophy for 2007 for their perseverance in having a referendum on the Non Farm use of ALR Land.
In second place with a 69% rating for their counter petition ploy for the Library/Civic Centre was the Vernon City Council.
The Bronze medal for third Place goes to NORD for their higher than cost of living pay raises who received a 42% rating.
Technically Vernon City Council with their Residential Tax increase and Business tax decrease did receive a 45% rating and was higher than the NORD blunder but the strict rules of the competition do not allow any Council to win more than 1 medal so as to save Political face and embarrassment.
Full results are still posted in right hand column.
