WOOLWICH ARE LOSING THEIR MINDS

 

Well I suppose I have to admit that my writings on the failures and lies by those in charge of the Elmira cleanup are for a purpose. I want a written record of all the technical incompetence if not technical negligence that has occurred .  That said, as you can well imagine, how does one do that without using words such as incompetent, shoddy, negligent, gild the lily, falsehoods etc. Well Woolwich have sent me a letter flatly stating that my Tuesday and Thursday e-mails to TRAC and Woolwich Council will not be accepted as official correspondence for TRAC.  Further they stated "Future correspondence that includes language such as accusations of incompetence or dishonesty directed toward Council members, Township staff, TRAC committee members...will not be tolerated."

Well darn, other than calling TRAC members "deferential" I'm doubtful that I've said a whole lot more about them. Even the word "deferential" is a quote from one of their own members (Sebastian) describing their behaviour.  

Well it seems that if I write critiques of the cleanup plans with the words "excellent, insightful, brilliant, world class" then all is good. Otherwise not so much. Oh and they also suggested that in reference to the Township's Procedural By-Laws and Customer Service Standards that "These policies clearly state that workplace violence, harassment, and any form of verbal or physical abuse will not be tolerated." 

Hmm I'm wondering if they are hinting that Uniroyal/Lanxess, GHD and the MECP  all work for Woolwich Township? Otherwise as those groups are 99% of my target then what the heck does a made in Woolwich Township document (Procedural By-Law) have to do with anything? Elected Council members do need thick skins as they are up front at Council meetings and sometimes take the brunt of public outrage on the occasional issue. That's just a fact of political life. I agree that the bread and butter Township staff really shouldn't be expected to take any crap from the public. TRAC members are appointed volunteers and should be prepared to defend their positions and decisions from time to time. That said I don't believe that the public can ask them questions at public meetings as they did for decades prior to Ms. Shantz becoming Mayor.
