Desio, the opposition calls for an urgent municipal council on the “Gargiulo case”

In Desio the opposition municipal councilors of the Pd, Desio Viva, Desio Libera with the independent Andrea Foti ask the convening of an urgent municipal council in which the mayor Simone Gargiulo reports on the “chaotic administrative situation of the city”, referring to his transition to Forza Italia, so far in the minority. Not only. They also ask the resignation of councilor Andrea Civierowith responsibility for education, sport and participation, representative of the Per Desio civic list, of which the mayor was also a member until a few weeks ago.

The “Gargiulo case”

“On Monday we registered the request for an urgent City Council in which we ask the mayor to report on the chaotic administrative situation in the city, which he himself created in the institutional settings, by joining a party that is in opposition” explain the minority councilors. “Understanding the new political-administrative structure of the city and having clear and well-identified interlocutors is a necessary prerequisite for the correct performance of the role of City Councilor, whether of the majority or the opposition. We therefore expect that the request will be accepted in the interest of all the directors.”
Tuesday afternoon on Mayor Gargiulo and the provincial coordinators of Forza Italia, Lega and Fratelli d’Italia they held a press conference to explain the reasons for the choice of the mayor who left the civic list Per Desio and joined Forza Italia, a party which has so far been in opposition. The Italian provincial secretary Luca Veggian stated that the party thus enters the majority and guaranteed that the municipal councilor Samuel Costanza will adapt to the choice. Which has not been confirmed by Costanza at the moment. “We will see whether it will be in the majority or not at the next city council” say the opposition councilors.

The “Civiero case”

The minority also has it with thecouncilor Andrea Civiero. “In the city’s administrative chaos, we cannot overlook the short-sighted political choices that this administration, too caught up in power games, is implementing through councilor Civiero. To the sad choice of do not continue the participatory budget projectfollows the wicked one of halve the city neighborhood committees no longer recognizing all those not registered in the register of municipal associations the status of institutional interlocutors, thus sweeping away any intention of representing the committee. The councilor demonstrates once again – after having undertaken a process of transformation of the committees for an entire year which ended in nothing thanks to our counteraction – that he does not know the matter. Unfortunately at terrible management of the emergency in schools relating to the damage caused by last year’s climatic event, adds to the poor participation management and the city is tired. For these reasons we have registered a proposed agenda the withdrawal of his proxies”. “Overall – concludes the centre-left opposition – between the disaster of the mayor and that of the councillor, we expect a majority that finally has a resurgence of pride and expresses itself for the good of the city”.
