The Mayor and City Council (M&CC) yesterday abruptly ended its statutory meeting after an uproar over the Local Government Commission (LGC) hiring and firing staff without notifying it.
During the meeting held at the Kitty Market yesterday, Mayor Ubraj Narine and councillors argued that decisions are being made by the LGC and they only become aware of changes when they show up for meetings.
This issue was raised after it was noticed that a new Acting Town Clerk turned up to make the announcements. It was then revealed that the Director of Solid Waste, the City Engineer and the Town Clerk were all on leave.
