It Does So Matter

It doesn't matter who they are. What does matter is that our Mayor and CAO are taking orders from them and whoever they are have never been elected to a position where this is allowed . I question the ethics but will leave wiser heads to have a really good look at who is calling the shots about Aurora's real estate and cash flow. You should only be prepared to grovel if you are prepared to explain why you allowed yourself to be placed in such a situation. Council needs to get off the floor.

Why does it look like the Mayor and CAO were the ones TAKING orders?

It certainly does matter who  they are and were, who created an agreement that allowed a facility owned and financed by Aurora taxpayers' dollars, to be hi-jacked to serve the purpose of an organization with roots in the wider community of York Region, for the benefit of people who contribute nothing  to the burden of our taxation.

Does anyone imagine, with  the secrecy surrounding it, there was no deliberate plan to take over the building?

Does anyone believe the non-answer of the Chairman of the Board about why the Museum was locked out of  a  building. always intended to be its home?

Or why the Chairman needed to be coached  in his answers to straightforward questions.?

This is not a  question of ethics..

In my judgement, it is a question of mis-directed  public funds.for a purpose not previously disclosed.

It's the reason, in my mind, for an unambiguous  report from the town solicitor.

Once brought to legal  attention,  omissions and shortcomings  in the  agreement could no longer be papered over.

Unequivocal  advice  for immediate change was a warning that had to be taken seriously.

I do not believe the issue is one for  negotiation.

That  agreement can no longer be sustained.
