Can councillors really return?

[Forum] Regarding “Council’s debt blows out to $565M” (CCN, December 4);

I have seen a couple of times now (that) the councillors could be returned, attributed to the Administrator Dick Persson. Can he be serious?

It appears to me that the councillors, at least those in control, have shown total financial incompetence, or even worse, total negligence of duties. Surely, they could not be returned without expecting similar performance and consequences, My preference would be an extended period with an administrator.
