Editor's Note - Unlike WL Council, at their June 4th meeting, defeating the May 22nd CC Joint Committee recommendation in regards to the Blue Fins Club - the Board endorsed this recommendation. I hope that the CC Joint Committee will discuss the fall-out of this situation at its' July 10th meeting. The City had no authority to defeat that recommendation, they were required to either accept the recommendation or refer it back. I think trust between both sides is potentially on the table once again... In moving the recommendation regarding the Blue Fins club, I believe it was important to have leverage to have a frank discussion in respecting the 'entire' Terms of Reference for the CC Joint Committee at the Joint Committee's July 10th meeting
