LAST NITES COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE

6 pm. at Woolwich Council Chambers there was discussion on a number of issues as well as some resolutions from closed session. In regards to CPAC it was resolved that the new Chair would be Councillor Julie Ann Herteis with her term ending November 13, 2014. There would also be a review of the Terms of reference with some form of measureable benchmarks included. There was mention of an Orientation Session for Council with the exceedingly strange proposal that it be conducted by Wilf Ruland, alleged independent hydrogeologist. Finally the naming of the members to the new Chemtura Public Advisory Committee has been delayed until March of this year. Politically speaking I see a very narrow window of opportunity which has just gotten smaller. Although no mention was made of the next public CPAC meeting scheduled by the old CPAC for January 24, can we safely assume without the new members being publicly named that this meeting is also delayed?
