No Room For Argument, Only The Fact.

Can a non-Aurora resident be on Town Council?
************
A person must be a resident or own property in the town to be a member of  Council.
To be accepted as a candidate, a person must register with the clerk of the Municipality and provide information required to determine eligibility.
The Clerk is a Commissioner of Oaths. A  would- be candidate must swear all information provided is true and accurate. Swearing to
 information that is not accurate carries its own risk. 
At the same time, it is not the responsibility of any party to challenge information provided. It has been sworn. The significance can hardly be more emphatic. 
I've known a couple of people who gave addresses which were not their own and gotten away with  it. They weren't around long enough .
Former Councillor Betty Pedersen moved to Newmarket during a term in office. As a property-owner in Aurora, her status was not affected. The Councillor completed  the term.

Now I understand the need to rain on the parade of whomever is vulnerable to personal attacks.
Obviously that's where power resides.
Power, wherever it is available.
Not on council, you say.
Pity!

The comment is less than direct but conveys the meaning nevertheless. 
The question of whether a person is entitled to hold a Council seat after  a change of domicile to another municipality, is not personal. 
Selling  property  is hardly a secret exercise. 
The word going around is that Councillor Gaertner is using an address which is not her place of residence. 
If it is not true, it should be corrected forthwith.
If it is, the process is as follows. 
The person who knows the circumstances, shall come forward and request Council to declare the seat vacant
There is onus.
 Under the law, it rests with the person who knows the facts of the matter.
Aurora residents are entitled to be represented by a person eligible to do so. 
That means living within  or owning property within the municipality. 
There is no room for interpretation.
Or quibble
