Alghero administration faces mounting political disputes
Overview
The municipal administration of Alghero continues to face political instability and criticism regarding fiscal and administrative management. Tensions have escalated over the vertical progression of municipal employees within the Environmental Protection and Valorization service. While the administration defends these restructuring measures as legal tools to improve working conditions and efficiency, Forza Italia has criticized the evaluation system for relying too heavily on discretionary assessments rather than professional service. Europa Verde has countered by accusing Forza Italia of hypocrisy regarding these career advancements.
Management of public assets remains a major flashpoint. The administration has denied rumors of privatizing SECAL, the municipal tax and property revenue company, stating the focus is on achieving ‘effective fiscal equity’. However, Fratelli d’Italia has accused the administration of evading responsibility for significant debts owed to SECAL, alleging that unpaid invoices have led to delays in worker salaries and suggesting the debt may be a deliberate attempt to justify future outsourcing.
These concerns regarding unpaid wages have extended to other municipal services. Michele Pais, a local councilor from the Lega party, has called on the administration to protect cemetery workers managed by the Barbara B. cooperative. Pais reported that workers are experiencing delays in receiving their wages, describing the situation as ‘unacceptable’ given the modest nature of their salaries. He also noted previous concerns regarding maintenance, safety, and the fulfillment of contract services within cemetery management.
Institutional decorum and impartiality are also under scrutiny. City Council President Mimmo Pirisi has faced backlash from opposition members for allegedly failing to maintain neutrality. Additionally, center-right leaders have threatened to boycott council sessions regarding a strategic alliance with the Bruno Kessler Foundation.
