Charlie Clark, the mayor of Saskatoon, has responded to a recent accusation made against Randy Donauer, a councillor for Ward 5.
Clark is submitting a resolution to the governance and priorities committee asking the administration to provide council with a report outlining the various governance options available when public concerns are raised about a council member.
Coy Nolin, a former student at Legacy Christian Academy, is the source of the accusations against Donauer.
Nolin claims Donauer hit him while he was at Living Waters Bible Camp with a wooden paddle. The camp was being rented at the time by Saskatoon Christian Centre Church, now Mile Two Church.
Donauer is not currently a defendant in a class action lawsuit, and none of the accusations have been tested in court.
According to Nolin, the slapping took place in 2003, and the Canadian Supreme Court outlawed physical punishment in 2004.
“I got beat up.
After that, we discussed how what I did was wrong and how I needed to grow as a man of God. We also discussed how gossip is not acceptable, according to Nolin.
To Global News, councillor Randy Donauer delivered a statement.
“I disavow all misconduct. I will vehemently defend myself if any of these unfounded claims are brought against me, Donauer wrote in an email.
On Monday, the governance and priorities committee will vote on Clark’s move.
