Guiling to mediate Zulueta-Ganzon tiff
Outgoing Vice Mayor Guillermo de la Llana said he will try to patch up the conflict between reelected Councilors Perla Zulueta and Jeffrey Ganzon.
De la Llana said Zulueta has already called him and explained her side of the story. He is also set to meet with Ganzon. This early, De la Llana admitted he is closer to Zulueta because of his good relations with the late Lazaro Zulueta, the late husband of the councilor.
De la Llana said he will try to convince the two even before the fight gets worst. But, he could not say yet if the two reelected councilors will listen to him.
"It seems elected Vice Mayor Jed Mabilog has a lot of work to do when he replaces me in July," Dela Llana quipped.
The new set of elected officials will assume office on July 1, 2007.
Dela Llana added the distribution of committee chairmanship will depend on the decision of the councilors.
Normally, each councilor is given two major committees and minor committees too. If she or he insist to get a major committee but the group will oppose, the vice chairmanship for that committee will be given to the complaining councilor, said De la Llana.
