Before retiring; I was the Senor Project Construction Co-ordinator for the Municipality of the Region of Durham.

I agree with Ken's letter!  There are policies and procedures that must be followed.  Whether the Township had $620,000.00 left over from the budget or not!  Where are the traffic studies?  Why were no news letters mailed out?  Not only to the street residence, but to the surrounding side streets and all stake holders?  Why was there no Environment impact study completed?  And for Council to approve of this type of work to be done after the contract was given to Crain's Construction without a proper tender procedures is totally against Construction Contract Law!  The CAO is altiminately responsible for making sure that all proper policies and procedures be followed by all staff!  That includes Tyson Meyers the Public Works Manager!  If the CAO does not take care of the facility; then it becomes a Zoo open to litigation!

I am not even sure if the Joe Gallivan the Planning Director was advised?
