The minutes of the May 12th Council Meeting were published on the Town's web-site. On Friday, I assume. Noted on the Aurora Citizen Blog on Saturday, the minutes did not reflect what everyone saw happen on the tape of the May12th meeting.
Next thing we know, the minutes disappeared from the town's web- site. As of this morning, Sunday, they have not re-appeared.Staff do not officially work at the Town Hall on Saturday and Sunday.
Well, isn't this a right turn-up for the book.
It may be the town is dealing with a similar conundrum to one other. .
An individual came to a public meeting and in front of an audience was allowed to utter accusations and allegations which were without foundation and could not be substantiated.
That fits the dictionary definition of slander
The presiding member.invited a resolution to permit procedure to be waived to allow the utterances to become part of the written public record .
That fits the dictionary definition of libel.
An injured party may well have recourse to law to correct the injury and seek compensation.
But what if the injured party is part of the first party responsible for the injury.
And what if the injured party is sworn to protect the interest of the first party.
What then?
Oh Me! Oh My! Oh What a tangled web-site we do weave.
