Steineler Mayor wants to « demote this year »

The long -time community secretary, former second lay judge and Current mayor of Steinsel, Fernand Marchetti (LSAP) would like to submit his resignation this year. « I’ve been working in various offices for a good 56 years, this year I will take my office, » confirms the mayor one corresponding RTL message Compared to the « Luxembourg word ».

However, it is still unclear when exactly he will be to be demonstrated, says Marchetti. « There are still two matters that I would like to finish. After that, I will demote. » So far, he had only discussed this internally with the party colleagues from the LSAP and with the DP members. Five LSAP and four DP councilors are currently forming a coalition in the community.

This is not the reason for the resignation, emphasizes Marchetti. « We have never driven as well as now with the DP. I am 76 years old and want to retire – no more and nothing less. » As for his successor, the mayor underlines the role of the local council. « The coalition agreement states that the LSAP will provide the mayor for six years. But if the Grand Duke accepts my Demination, which I have to submit first, it is due to the municipal council to name a new mayor. »

However, the resignation has not yet been submitted, as Marchetti’s party colleague Manon Kolber-Hoffmann notes in an interview with LW. The municipal council has signaled interest internally to take over the mayor’s office when the election is due. « I have the LSAP colleagues from Steinsel in my back, » she says. However, the whole thing was not an issue yet. « Nothing has yet been decided that it only happens after the resignation. »

Both Fernand Marchetti and Manon Kolber-Hoffmann are amazed at the media attention before the mayor has officially announced his resignation.
