Antiquiera
Opposition City Councilor Perla Zulueta was indeed stripped of chairmanships in the two committees she previously held.
The committee on ways and means went to Councilor Antonio Pesina while the committee on public services, environmental protection and ecology went to neophyte Councilor Eldrid Antiquiera.
Both councilors earlier expressed intention to become chair of said committees.
