CLARIFICATION: YES INDEED THE NEXT TAG MEETING IS NEXT THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 25/21

Last Saturday I posted here the tentative date that I had for the rescheduled/delayed TAG meeting. In fact my source was correct and the time and date are February 25/21 at 6:30 pm. The meeting is a virtual one and the public may "attend" via Zoom meeting by either e-mailing or phoning the Support Specialist Lisa Schaefer at lschaefer@woolwich.ca or 519 6691647 (ext. 6112). ...................................................................................................... I am pleased to state that relations between myself and the TAG support specialist are considerably better than they were several years ago. We both have strong personalities and butted heads early on in her tenure as a Woolwich employee. Since then I have come to appreciate her skills and reliabilty and it seems that we both prefer to get along than not. Also I can say that I tried very hard and was quite reasonably sucessfull in getting along with the new TAG Chair Tiffany Svensson since she took over from the admittedly incredible and difficult to compare with, Dr. Richard (Dick) Jackson. His talents, experience and no nonsense attitude likely will never be achieved again. Regardless Ms. Svensson within the confines of an extremely punitive, undemocratic and biased public consultation process, initiated by Sandy Shantz and Mark Bauman (Woolwich Twn.), has often times done her best to be polite and respectful towards me which was both appreciated and recognized by myself. Unfortunately her decisions and behaviour in 2020 have drastically eroded that good will. ...................................................................................................................... Besides a private agreement with Lanxess (Ramin A.), later communicated to TAG and "accepted" by them regarding the Stroh property, there has also been further poor decision making on her part regarding responding to written Delegations to TAG from the public. When a Delegate following the previously mentioned "...punitive, undemocratic and biased public consultation process" nevertheless follows those rules and submits detailed text and maps showing agreed upon ground surface contour lines on the east side of the Lanxess (Uniroyal) site proving ground surface flow of Uniroyal toxic waste waters onto the Stroh property BOTH in the north and southern parts of the site; then a rationale or verbal (minimum) or preferably written discussion must be part of any decision to totally reject the factual basis of the Delegation to TAG. Ms. Svensson refused to do this although she did send two (wait a minute-I sent her two e-mails, she responded inadequately only to one) polite, written e-mails so stating her failure to do so. ........................................................................................................ I understand that as an individual presumably on contract to receive her $10,000 per year stipend, she must adhere to the rules laid down by our pretend mayor in Woolwich Township. I guess I have to ask however whether the cost to her credibility and professionalism is worth it.
