Vows To Keep Pressure On Council Over Medical Complex Grant
Mayor Brocanier and several of the Councillors have attempted to defend the handout to Northumberland Medical Arts Inc. (NMAI or the Clinic) with emotion and completely unsubstantiated statements. By allowing passion to trump logic, they have ignored the facts!
Another important issue has come up that could have a big impact on our taxes. It will be up for final vote in Council this Monday December 7.
Mayor Brocanier and five other Councillors voted at Committee of the Whole on November 30th to spend $4 million of our money so the Public Works building can move into new digs at the town-owned Northam Industrial Park.
Debra McCarthy and Ken Strauss were John Hill’s guests on Week in Review on 89.7 FM to discuss Council’s voting for to waive the $300k development charges and fees for the North Medical Arts Inc.
Council in their Committee of the Whole Meeting voted in favour of waiving over $300,000 in fees and development charges due from North Medical Arts Inc.(NMAI). Only Councillors Brian Darling and Larry Sherwin opposed the waiver. The CTA is asking all Cobourg taxpayers to contact the Councillors who voted for the waiver of development charges & fees and let them know that you are opposed to the waiver.
