Home and School Association representatives, high profile community volunteers, and a member of the Committee to Relocate Oakville-Trafalgar High School. among others. A request from Oakville resident Mary Anne Hawthorne to reveal the names of key communicators was originally turned down by the board. They were eventually released on order from Ontario's Information and Privacy Commission. In January I992. Scheel gave the board, a report which alleged potential abuses of the Key Communicator program and called for its abolition. Burlington trustee Linda Glover calling for the board "to apologize for allowing a public debate and vote based on rationale not released to the public." "As a group the key communica- tors were maligned on more than one occasion and little in the way of public support was given by the board. It is in order to rectify this injustice, and in response to the let- ter from the (four) key communica- tors, that I am making the recom- mendation," said Glover. Controversy about the program arose when several Oakville resi- dents began asking questions about the program in light of the Oakville- Trafalgar High School relocation. The apology was being sought from three key communicators (Kathleen Hadley, Marilyn Henderson and Anne Jones) and the spouse (Sandy Van Harten) of another who wanted the board to apologize for the ridicule and embarrassment suffered by key communicators in the controversy. Their request was acted upon by Glover who presented it as a motion to board trustees. The Key Communicator program was initiated by board administra- tion who recruited community members. One of the requirements was that members should be posi- tive supporters of the school board. Oakville Ward 3 trustee John Scheel raised the issue during his municipal election campaign. WEEKDAY PER PERSOI MENT agy was being sought key communicators Hadley, Marilyn and Anne Jones) and The procedures governing by-election or appointment ar legislated by the Municipal kJ the Municipal Elections Act am the Regional Municipalities Act. _ If Council chooses to hold by-election, it would be conduc“ ed the same as a regular muniCi pal election. Unlike councillor which are voted on by ward everyone in Oakville can cast ballot for mayor. (The stipulatio that a by-election cannot be hel after March 3lst of an electio year does not apply in this cas since the next municipal electio is slated for Nov. 1994.) If the second option is chose a special meeting of Counci would be held. Nominations fro within Council members to fi the mayor's seat would be taker followed by a vote. However those requesting the apology got the report through a 17- month Freedom of Information request, found no proof of program abuses and demanded an apology. Glover said her motion was directed at board silence on the issue which may have caused embarrassment. This would mark the first tin! in Oakville's history such a pr cess involving the mayor woul be undertaken. In January 1992, Scheel failed to persuade the board to abolish the program. Instead. the program was frozen by education director Bob Williams, Staff have not yet pre- sented a report on the program although they have been directed to do so. Nor did they feel it was their fault the board had remained silent on the program, since administra- tion to date hasn't made a report on the program. Oakville Ward 2 trustee Cheryl Reid said she never meant to malign anyone but said, "lt's not my pro- gram, I never supported or voted for it and certainly not the way it has developed." Reid said the issue had been blown out of proportion. Those voting to express regret included Oakville trustees Lynne Clark, Penny Siebert and Debbie Marklew. Oakville trustees voting against expressing regret included Limits Lane, John Scheel and Cheryl Reid. Those voting to apologize for voting based on confidential ratio- nale included:Lynne Clark..Those voting against included: Linda Lane, John Scheel, Cheryl Reid, Penny Siebert and Debbie Marklew. According to assistant Tom Clerk Christine Shewchuk Mulvale cannot hold two elected offices simultaneously and mus resign once the election result: are published in the Canada Gazette. I Despite the debate Thursday, no action was taken to reinstate the program which still remains frozen. Some trustees, Thursday, felt they had nothing to apologize for since the program was initiated and run by the administration. Scheel cited examples of board administrative correspondence which he said indicated administra- tion recognized the problems with the program. He said administration failed to take action. While there was no legal requirement for Mulvale to ste down in order to become a uni date in the upcoming federal el tion, a victory would necessitate her resignation. At that pointy Council must officially declar/e her office vacant and consider two options: hold a town-wid by-election or appoint someon from within their numbers to t , her place. "Administration missed the boat, it's their obligation to clean it up," Scheel said. "I'm not apologizing because it's not a board program. There's no way I'm apologizing. It's the direc- tor's problem, he started it," said Scheel, who received a warning from board chairman Dave Coons when he began asking for Williams to apologize.
