The city government of the National District rescinded the Triple AAA contract for garbage collection fees. The announcement was made by councilor Omar Méndez Lluberes who saluted the decision made by Mayor David Collado.
Méndez said the city government will benefit by keeping RD$150 million a year in commissions that were paid out to Triple AAA every month. He said Triple AAA did not have employees, collection stands or offices, and did everything using the logistics of the city government. He said the origins of the rescinded contract will be investigated. Diario Libre reports that Angel Rondon, in pre-trial detention in the Odebrecht bribes scandal, is the main shareholder of the company.
