“The Municipal Council is the one that must approve or reject the increase (from the transportation rate). Let’s not take the butt out of the syringe, about an issue that by law we must address. Now if we don’t have the capacity, let’s step aside and let their substitutes take over. But this must be discussed in the Council,” said Bernardo Montenegro, spokesperson for the Santa Cruz Mayor’s Office.
These statements were made after a group of Transporters will surround the Municipal Council of Santa Cruz de la Sierra and caused the president of the Council, Silvana Mucarzel, to attack Mayor Jhonny Fernández, whom she accused of not complying with the presentation of a technical study that justifies any change in the rate.
“Mr. Mayor, we ask you from this Council, do your job”Mucarzel demanded.
