In the end, the East Aurora community will decide the fate of the controversial $9 million twin-sheet ice rink proposed for Riley Street in the village. ...
Mayor Clark W. Crook emphasized that it will be the public that decides whether the project becomes reality or not — particularly given the significant amount of financial backing it will require.

“Quite frankly, unless this rink has wild community support, it will not get built, regardless of this board’s [decision].”

Trustee Kevin Biggs advocated for an outdoor ice rink with a metal roof and walls designed with a Roycroft-flair. Some neighbors indicated that might go over better with the community.
Big decision for East Aurora.
