That was one question presented to candidates at a meeting hosted by the Surrey Board of Trade Tuesday evening.

While current City Councillor Tom Gill says the Surrey First team supports the position, as long as the Province provides the funding, Independent mayoral candidate, Vikram Bajwa says that role should have been created years ago.

Surrey Civic Coalition candidate Grant Rice says when an Auditor-General is chosen, he wants that person to look at sales from back in 2003, “When Campbell Heights was sold for 15 cents on a dollar, 35-thousand dollars an acre to Progressive and Kingswood.”

Among other topics covered at the discussion were whether the RCMP should be kept in the city and what candidates would do to improve areas of Surrey like the City Centre.
