Why not move forward with the transition of the mains?

1.       I was asked why I didn’t move this forward with the city (write the letter).  I responded there were good reasons; primarily this is about a board acting as fiduciaries and operating as such.

2.       : 1) I’d done all of the work on this from 2013 to the present despite some stiff board resistance to the idea; 2) In 2018 the board was embroiled in a proposed rule change and it was clear that my initiative would be undermined when none on the current board were excited to see the letter from the City of Wheaton; and 3) I decided this was to be my gift to the new board. This would be a wonderful opportunity to perform. They could the take all of the credit for this wonderful accomplishment, and I am sure they will if they ever move forward. I told the owners that the new president has steadfastly insisted from 2012 to the present that “This will never happen” and that management also had doubts.  I agree that it will be easier to fail than to succeed in that endeavor. Nevertheless I convinced the board to allow me to try. I’ll never know if those pronouncements were about stonewalling, but I suspect they were and they are.  It will be easier for a board to fail than to succeed, and too many aren’t interested in doing the work.  That’s not in accordance with one’s fiduciary duties.
