Melford Town Council Clarifies Contract, Looking Forward to Further Success
Today, Mr. Stan Aldritch, Melford Town Councilman responsible for the Parks and Library, released the following statement in response to inquiries from the media:
“Several persons have recently either placed inquiries or made allegations in regards to the Melford Central Library’s business partnership with TDA Holdings, Inc. This is a private-sector firm that partners with the Library through the Security Section’s Fine Enforcement Branch (FEB), the intelligence division of the Section, under the capable leadership of Ms Margaret Hurtubise.
“The Town is aware that TDA is controlled, through a 51% share ownership, by Zamyatin Enterprises, a Russian firm that has received some media attention in recent months. In the tendering process for the FEB partnership contract, the Town observed the highest standards of scrutiny and proposal review. All documents were reviewed by qualified legal and accounting professionals, and the entire tendering and approval process was in compliance with the laws of the Province of Ontario.
“The Town imposed numerous concrete performance requirements in the contract, and is pleased to report that TDA has met or exceeded all expectations. A recent contract performance review by an independent auditor revealed no significant concerns.
“The Town of Melford is proud to hold a leadership role in library security, and a solid history of contract management. We look forward to future success in these areas, and consider the matter closed to further inquiry.”
