Manfredonia. “Giandiego Gatta think of something else, think of the Municipalities of the Capitanata, not of the managers and employees of the PD. Well done to all the candidates, no criticism.
Ballot? As Trap said, don’t say cat if…”
Exclusive interview with Domenico La Marcacandidate for mayor of the centre-left coalition “Together for Manfredonia”, with the lists: MOLO 21, CON, POPULAR PROJECT, DEMOCRATIC PARTY, LA MARCA MAYOR – GREEN EUROPE, CIVIC MANFREDONIA.
We start with the photo published on social media on May 19th by the PD of Manfredonia, on the sidelines of an event at the party headquarters. La Marca with members of the PD, also employees and managers of the Municipality of Manfredonia. Beyond issues linked to constitutional norms – there were posts between the PD, the candidate for mayor Ugo Galli, the regional councilor Campo – the observation: for years Manfredonia was governed by the centre-left, PD first and foremost, before of the rift between Campo, Bordo and Riccardi. Urban planning, hiring, cooperatives, concessions, occupation of public land, etc. Beyond rules, regulations, timetables, doesn’t Domenico La Marca believe that it is essentially a question of ties, of impartiality? Would he still be able as mayor to be impartial towards managers and employees of the Municipality of Manfredonia who publicly support him at an electoral level? And vice versa, would they be able to be impartial towards third parties outside of electoral and color issues? Towards how many not related to the centre-left coalition?.
Since the hypothesis of his candidacy emerged, which materialized at the end of April, La Marca’s critics have been supportive who behind him are in the lists: Angelo Riccardi – Maria Teresa Valente (CON), Salvatore Zingariello – Francesco Schiavone (Progetto Popolare), Giuseppe La Torre (Manfredonia Civica), Franco La Torre, Gaetano Prencipe (Molo 21), c ‘it’s the same PD, and also Innocenza Starace and Alfredo De Luca (La Marca Sindaco – Europa Verde). Therefore, “the old one”.
It would basically be the majority of the Manfredonia municipal council dissolved in 2019 both for the mayor’s resignation, friction in the majority, and for the establishment of a commission for access to documents with confirmed or presumed criminal infiltration.
In 2021, there was the administration of Gianni Rotice, which lasted 2 years, the dissolution with the no-confidence of half the councilors + 1, then the “Hands off” operation. So from the PD primaries of 2014, 10 years later, have we returned to the starting point, with the same names?
How to be able to operate freely as mayor, as first citizen? How will Domenico La Marca be able to be independent, to think with his head, how will he be able to organize the new council, or the ASE, etc.?
Finally, the program: 5 concrete actions with the new Administration:
- MUNICIPALITY STAFF (From a strictly quantitative point of view, the overall consistency of the local authority apparatus is heavily influenced by the constraints that are often introduced at central level to contain the total number of public employees. These limitations sometimes lead to the impossibility of replacing employees who terminate their employment relationship with a new workforce or, in other cases, limit this option (reduced percentage of replacement of employees who retire)“.
- THE CRITICAL ISSUES OF THE SAN CAMILLO HOSPITAL, ALTHOUGH THE COMPETENCE IS REGIONAL;
- ROADS, PUBLIC LIGHTING, URBAN DECORATION
- TARI REDUCTION
- THE MANAGEMENT OF MONUMENTAL SITES
- MAJOR EVENTS AND TOURISM
- THE SOCIAL
Finally, the first week as mayor, the first action.
