Santo Domingo mayor rejects funding through LMD

Santo Domingo Mayor Johnny Ventura maintained his position to not accept city moneys through Senator Amable Aristy Castro’s Liga Municipal Dominicana. The PRD mayors united last week and handed the Presidency their request that the moneys be distributed directly through the Treasury. Nevertheless, many of those who signed the PRD petition have later visited the LMD, or the government organization that administers funding of the city governments, to receive their monthly city government allotments.
