Druh Farrell: Resign Immediately from The Calgary Homeless Foundation Board of Directors as the City of Calgary's Representative

Druh Farrell: Resign Immediately from The Calgary Homeless Foundation Board of Directors as the City of Calgary's Representative


Reason: Gross Incompetence


The Facts: 


Whereas,


1.  Druh Farrell, Ward 7 alderman, sits on the Board of Directors of the Calgary Homeless Foundation (CHF)


2.  Farrell has failed to discharge her duties as a representative of the City of Calgary.


3.  Farrell has failed to negotiate a single new affordable unit of 1200 new units in the Ward 7 East Village, which is a publicly funded initiative through the CMLC (Calgary Municipal Land Corporation) which is a wholly owned subsiduary of the City of Calgary, its only shareholder.


4.  Farrell also failed to negotiate a single new affordable unit in the Sunnyside/Kensington projects Pixel & St John's. Also in Ward 7 and only blocks from Farrell's own home, Pixel & St John's, have not allotted 1 new affordable unit of the 200 they are building.




A total of 1400 new units... Not one new affordable housing unit.




This is gross incompetence and Farrell should resign from the CHF immediately.

  1. Can you please be more specific about the CMLC / MSI debacle? I have seen it over twitter but it seems like you had your fact wrongs. Could you please explain it to me?

  2. It is public money. Borrowed money. Leveraged money. Taxpayer dollars. CRL.
