Local political developments in Lerici and Sestu

In Lerici, Mayor Marco Russo has issued a decree assigning specific administrative delegations to majority council members Marta Medicina, Antonio Cosenza, and Maurizio Bernardini. The move aims to strengthen the connection between the municipal administration, the territory, and citizens.

Medicina will oversee the Ca’ Doria and Fodo projects, relations with the Fondazione Lerici Cultura, and environmental sustainability. Cosenza, the President of the City Council, is tasked with managing relations with local hamlet committees to ensure dialogue with various local identities. Bernardini has been assigned the project to combat waste abandonment.

In Sestu, a municipal council meeting ended in high tension as opposition groups walked out of the chamber. The confrontation followed allegations of offensive language directed at Mayor Michele Cossa and a dispute regarding comments made by Environment Councilor Francesco Serra toward Councilor Valentina Meloni. Opposition members demanded apologies, citing concerns over the treatment of female elected officials, while Mayor Cossa called for respect and accountability within the institution.
