Members of the citizen Consultation Movement went on Thursday, March 31, to the Municipal Council to present a memorandum in which they make a formal request for an open town hall to demand the resignation of the capital's mayor José Luis Fábrega reports La Prensa.
Mayor Fábrega says that there was already a process to remove him from office
Luis Pinedo, of the movement, said the councilors must respond to the request within a period of five days. The memorial is accompanied by more than a thousand citizen signatures.
He explained that the purpose of the town hall, which the mayor and the 26 corregimiento representatives are required to attend, is for citizens to ask questions of local authorities.
If the citizens feel that they are not offered the answers about projects in the communities, they can request resignation, as established by law.
“I am of the opinion that Mayor Fábrega almost has a favor because what comes to him with the revocation of his mandate is much heavier,” he said.
This week, the Electoral Court rejected an appeal filed by Fábrega against the request for a revocation of his mandate.
