Minister of Communities Ronald Bulkan has urged the new Georgetown Mayor and City Council to commit to ensuring the proper management of the city and to closely monitor the actions of the administration in the implementation of their decisions and programmes.
“No pressure, but all eyes are on not only the Mayor but the entire council as to how it will tackle the age-old problems that continue to beset the city,” Bulkan observed while speaking on behalf of President David Granger at the Council’s inauguration yesterday.
Bulkan noted that the inauguration of the new council presents a great opportunity to hit the “reset button” on the way in which the city is governed and he stressed that while the jurisdictions of the political arm, led by the Mayor, and the administrative arm, led by the Town Clerk, must be respected, councillors should not to shirk their oversight responsibility.
