Please, could someone please tell me what happened to the
termination clause? Was it dropped entirely, postponed or is it hovering
somewhere in limbo? We have to stop getting side-tracked into arguments about
programming. This is about dollars, sense and the Museum. Aurora still holds all
the legal, moral and fiscal high ground if it has the guts to use its position
this time.

The Abel and Pirri motion included a clause to provide twelve months notice of termination .
Initially, Abel moved to defer the resolution entirely. That failed.
The motion was debated to a conclusion with a majority appearing to be in support. At the last minute. Humphryes moved and Thompson seconded the termination notice caluse be deleted. The majority approved it with a commitment that something or other would be accomplished accomplished within a specific time
or the termination clause would be activated. .
The time limit appeared to be March 27th. We are now into May.
Gremlin are afoot creating mischief.
The board chair is apparently quoted he was coerced into agreeing to have Councllors on the board.
I think Councillors on the board would be as useful as mammaries on a bull .
We are still pumping money into the facility. as well as additional funds on a "facilitator".
Sometimes it seems the only administration needed is a single individual capable of writing specifications and awarding contracts.or making requests for proposals.
Yup. Big Bad Aurora forced the Board of the Center to do something against their will. Fat chance. But if Council sit back & let the Board handle press releases, they hand yet another advantage to their opposition. Any pretense of Good Will seems to have evaporated with the removal of the termination clause. Big surprise there, eh?
ReplyDeleteI never thought to be arguing in favour of the Jazz Gang. But if we charge them for the use of that park, we can't we simply charge the Center for their use of the Church Street building? What is fit for one should apply to the other. More so in the case of the Center as they have to bring in the Museum. Can't have a 2-tier system of rules. Last time I checked, Council set the rules. Make them equable.
