I finally received a call back from Peter Kuran, who as a result of Susan Mundick’s immediate departure, has now risen to the position of acting General Manager for the Vancouver Park Board.
First, I was told that Anita Ho, the Director of Corporate Services, had also received another inquiry besides CivicScene’s regarding Ian Robertson’s use of the Vancouver Park Board logo on his personal and partisan website. In fact, it was Ho that added the “Proudly 1 of 7 Elected Officials of the” to the logo to try and smooth things over.
In consideration of the fact that this logo is a representation of a public entity, I didn’t feel that this was sufficient, hence my follow-up with Kuran.
Want to use this on your website? Feel free, because you are unlikely to get much pushback from the Vancouver Park Board.
What I discovered in our conversation, however, was very surprising to say the least.
