The Pro-Hygiene and Health Services Company (SEHISA) has agreed to accept the cancellation of the sanitation contract hastily given to them last week by the Mayor of Santo Domingo East, Juan de los Santos, and has also decided against taking legal action against the town council or the mayor. Though the contract has been rescinded, the Santo Domingo East municipality has to pay SEHISA US$156,000 for the disposal of more than six tons of garbage in the Duquesa landfill during the last eight days, as stipulated by the contract. Council member Juan Antonio Cruz Trifolio said that anyone who makes a mistake must be given the opportunity to correct it, and that the efforts by the mayor to rectify his mistakes have been sincere, so the public must wait to see the results. Trifolio did however warn Mayor de los Santos and said that from now on any public contracts should be put up for public bidding to avoid speculation about his actions.
