The former Mayor of Kalymnos D. Diakomichalis, expresses dissatisfaction over the understaffed municipal nursery school, despite having approval since March 2025 for staff hires. He accuses the current Mayor, I. Mastrokoukos of disregarding the opportunity to utilize these resources, leaving many families without childcare services. He states that both the nursery and its branch in Chorio could have been functioning.
The former mayor poses three direct questions:
- Why were the 4 approved staff positions from March 2025 not utilized for the Vathy nursery school, despite having the authority to do so?
- Why did the recruitment process take six months to begin?
- If officials had already warned about the need for hiring, why didn’t you act in time to ensure the nursery could operate smoothly?
He concludes by requesting a written response and informing the people of Kalymnos.
