"I'm aware throughout that time that at least four staff members left because of it, and now going into Christmas the guillotine remains above the staff who are still there. I really feel for the staff and their families about the way these things have played out this term. It is not the way to treat people," Ms O'Leary said.
Despite Ms O'Leary's support for the site, comments on her Facebook post were split.
Rhys Hickman said the internet is a more accessible place for people to get their information now.
"Angela when you are travelling around the country or world where do you get your info on what to do. In this day and age its called Google. Not I-Site. It sucks for the people that work there but its just a sign of the times," Mr Hickman said.
However, Karen Watkins replied, saying some people prefer talking to a face.
"People like to speak to people. Google can be a start but way more information comes from person to person contact if you use I-Sites well," Ms Watkins said. "What I do not like is its location. No parking and not as visible as it should be."
The I-Site is not the only decision to be deferred, with the future of Founders Theatre also still unclear.
After debate around whether to demolish the building or give it back to the community, council decided to incorporate a decision into the West Town Belt Masterplan.
The plan has since been deferred until 2019 for public consultation after Christmas.
Maintenance costs came to $35,648 over the 2017/18 financial year, primarily to keep the building secure and weathertight. Council provided for $22,000 over the current 2018/19 financial year.
