An Alberta government-ordered investigation into the City of Chestermere’s financial issues under fired mayor Jeff Colvin is complete.

Chestermere’s former mayor will make his first public appearance in the city since the province fired him and three councillors in December.

The City of Chestermere says it will abandon its application for a judicial review of the province's firings of four members of council and three chief administrative officers.

The city spent just shy of $300,000 in unbudgeted, unapproved funds on the legal challenge under ex-mayor Jeff Colvin’s leadership.

The City of Chestermere is throwing in the towel on a costly and unauthorized legal battle against the provincial government.

The former mayor and three former city councillors argued in court that the decision to dismiss them caused 'irreparable harm.' On Friday, a judge disagreed with them, dismissing their application to be reinstated.

For the second time, a judge has rejected a bid by Chestermeres fired mayor and council to get a court injunction on their dismissals.
