Now, they did it with wrong information and they did the best they could at the time, but that doesn‘t excuse He said it‘s up to the public to decide how much the forâ€" mer city council is to blame for the fiasco when they hear all the details of the RIM Park Inquiry report on Oct. 20. ‘Until then, he thinks that he still has an important role to play at the region, providing a watchful eye over how local taxpayers‘ money is spent. cussion at all. Council was responsible for passing and them and that includes me too. I‘m prepared to be held accountable for my part in the RIM Park deal." "The region now spends threeâ€"quarters of out property tax," said Connolly. "Perhaps someone can have a look at The region is responsible for policing, ambulance serâ€" vices, garbage, water, roads and social services. And Connolly has three major concerns. We must improve and proâ€" tect our environment," said Connolly. "I also very interested in property taxes and of course you must provide service. "I‘m not for cutting any serâ€" vices, but I do think we can save money in areas of duplicaâ€" tion, and I think some of things we do now is rather high cost." RIM Park and the accountâ€" ability of local politicians was also a big reason why Duncan McLean threw his hat in the ring for regional council. "I think we need people with business skills to get involved with local governâ€" ment," said McLean, a local commercial real estate agent. "The RIM Park fiasco, and the decision to give the Granite Club the Rink in the Park are examples of taxpayers not getâ€" ting value for the dollar." McLean has written about those issues in local publicaâ€" tions, and said he wanted to give people a choice. "We need to debate the issues," he said. "It isn‘t democâ€" racy if no one pays attention and nobody cares... you need to know where candidates McLean thinks his comâ€" mercial real estate background gives him some good experiâ€" ence in dealing with land development and planning. "I think the people of Waterâ€" loo want a choice and I think they want a change from the people who were on council and brought the RIM Park issue forward."> Smart growth and balancâ€" ing the needs of development is also of particular interest to Stephen Markan, a computer consultant at the University of Waterloo who also consults with the faculty of environâ€" mental studies. "A lot of basic health issues are based on having a good is our equivalent to Walkerton to some extent, so we have some pressing local issues "I looked at the region and realized that what was happenâ€" ing there was the same thing we suffered through three years ago at the local council including the development affecting the Waterloo Markan, who ran for city council in 2000, said he was also concerned about local levâ€" els of government going ahead with costly projects without the Ajmer Mandur, a successful local businessman and memâ€" ber of the Southâ€"Asian comâ€" munity, also wants to bring some diversity of views to regional council. proper scrutiny. "I think there‘s a lot of peoâ€" ple interested in taking back civic control of council again," said Markan. "One of the posiâ€" tive aspects of RIM Park is that more people are involved. Mandur, who previously ran for city council in Kitchener before moving to Waterloo, said the three issues he hears people talk about is affordable housing, transit and growth. But the RIM Park lessons also aren‘t lost on him. "I think we have to do a forensic audit of the LRT before we make any kind of decisions there," said Mandur. "It‘s well over a $290 million project, and I think we‘ve already made one mistake in Waterloo and I don‘t want to repeat any of those "We‘re paying dearly on the RIM Park scenario, and I think another giant project like this needs a lot more study to be done before we can make any decision. I‘m not for it or against it, I‘m just for better control and better scrutiny of the project, and if I sit on counâ€" cil I will turn over every stone." mistakes at the regional level.
