WPCNR STAGE DOOR. By John F. Bailey. June 19, 2003:Mayor Joseph Delfino has sent a memorandum obtained by WPCNR, to the members of the White Plains Common Council demanding to know whether their choice of Tony Stimac and Jeffrey Rosenstock is still their choice.
The Mayor has given Benjamin Boykin, Robert Greer, Glen Hockley, William King, Rita Malmud, Tom Roach until tomorrow, Friday, June 20 to advise him whether are not they still want the two gentlemen to run the White Plains Performing Arts Center.
Eyewitnesses saw Mr. Stimac at City Hall today, Thursday. The contract between the two gentlemen and the city is currently being drawn up by the legal department, according to Susan Habel who told WPCNR this Tuesday.
What is significant about the Mayor's memorandum is that it accuses "members of the Common Council" of having had "discussions with representatives of WESTCO Productions regarding the Council's unanimous selection of another operator (Messrs. Rosenstock and Stimac) "
The Memorandum also indicates that if the Common Council so feels, "the approved memo of understanding could be rescinded in favor of a new memo of understanding with WESTCO Productions if that is the will of the majority of the council."
Mayor is confused.
The Mayor's memo points out that the Council "voted unanimously" and was "tremendously enthusiastic about its choice." The Mayor writes, "I am now a little bit confused based on comments that I am hearing. In light of the fact that we still have not signed the contract with the selected operator, if any member of the council having even the slightest of second thoughts regarding the selection, please let me know by Friday, June 20th and I will schedule a public meeting of the council to discuss the matter."
