Geoff Clarke named acting city clerk The City of Cornwall has appointed Geoff Clarke as acting clerk to oversee the department on an interim basis.The city clerk position became vacant last week, after the City and then CAO Helen Finn parted ways. Clarke will also continue with his regular duties as Human Resources director during this interim period. During the transition, deputy clerk Manon Levesque will assume the daily procedural responsibilities for the clerk’s office with City council.This will include handling the clerk responsibilities during regular council meetings, among other things. “As part of this transition period, we will be reviewing and exploring possible alternatives to the current structure of the clerk’s department within City Hall,” said CAO Maureen Adams. “This review will begin in the very near future.” – Francis Racine A small ceremony, to honor retired members of the Cornwall Community Police force, took place on June 20 at police headquarters. More than 20 retired workers took part in the Retiree Wall unveiling. “In 2012, we were shocked by the sudden death of a young police officer,” explained Josée Lalonde, dispatcher for 17 years and initiator of the project. “To honor him, we had his obituary cut out and posted on a board here at the station. That’s when I realized we needed more to honor the ones who had served our community.” The wall, which contains the name of several retired officers, was unveiled after several months of planning. “The Police Board was happy to help,” said councillor and board member André Rivette, holding back tears. Your names will forever be etched on the wall. I want to congratulate everyone!” — photo Francis Racine
