I have heard from our lawyer that at the November Aurora Board of
Trustees meeting you publicly expressed the belief that the concerns
that we wanted addressed at that meeting were the result of ill will
stemming from the private property law suit that was initiated against
us by the Zwigards and Koepp/Place. Hearing this opinion expressed
by the village CEO at a public meeting is disconcerting to me.
Sincerely,
Laura Holland
When I was elected, almost 12 years ago, I ran on the principle that “Aurora needed her
own voice,” A local would be on the village board with no ties to Wells College. It was
paramount that at least one trustee would be looking out for the well-being of all village
residents versus the Goliath (Wells College).
To this end, I failed and Goliath won. I resigned both my position as deputy mayor and
village trustee at our last meeting, after realizing the giant would not be dropped by my
little stone.
The main issue was how could a private entity (Wells College) with the cooperation of a
fellow board member, circumvent the whole local governing body and establish an office
for the Cayuga County Sheriff's Office in Aurora.
I felt, and still do, with respect to this issue, that we no longer need a village board
because we are just pawns. I feel violated, abused and embarrassed.
I am sorry for letting so many good people down and am withdrawing from any future
political life due to this type of unchecked corruption.
Because of who you vote for in the next mayoral election, you may gain some unwanted
bedfellows.
