Concerns have been raised about a $500,000 fuel bill that has been incurred by Mayor of Linden, Carwyn Holland and his Deputy, Waneka Arrindell.
At a recent meeting of the town council’s finance committee, Town Clerk Jenella Bowen expressed concerns over the fuel bill.
Bowen has been at loggerheads with the Mayor and most of the council and in the past few months two no-confidence motions have been passed against her. The last was passed last Wednesday and the council is awaiting a response from the Ministry of Communities as it relates to the request to send her on administrative leave with immediate effect.
“The previous council’s fuel bill would have amounted to $48,000 for the IMC chairman, if considered in the said period,” Bowen stated at the meeting.
