Wainwright McIntosh of A Partnership for National Unity (APNU) earlier this month was elected the new Mayor of New Amsterdam, while Kirk Fraser, also of APNU was elected as the deputy mayor of the town.
APNU has eight seats on the New Amsterdam Mayor and Town Council while the People’s Progressive Party/Civic has six and the two sides seemingly plan to work in cohesion to improve the livelihoods of residents within the township.
McIntosh after being elected earlier this month stated that he will be working “assiduously” to ensure that residents are given “services due to them” stressing that the improvement of the garbage situation is one of the main tasks on the front burner.
