The mayor of Lloret de Mar for the last eight years, Jaume Dulsat (Junts per Lloret), has announced today that he is leaving office for "strictly labor reasons", as he has communicated in a letter addressed to the residents.
His resignation from office will be formalized on March 6, in an extraordinary plenary session. From then on, Dulsat will be part of the government but as mayor without salary until the end of the legislature.
His position in the mayor's office will be held, until the next elections, by the first deputy mayor and councilor for Territories and Sustainability, Albert Robert.
Dulsat already announced at the end of the year that he would not appear again in the next municipal elections but the decision to leave for professional reasons has advanced.
"A new professional project has been presented that asks me to join immediately and that does not allow me the dedication that the Lloret mayor's office demands, the most coherent thing is to resign from the position," explains Dulsat, who will work in the private sector.
Dulsat, born in Lloret de Mar, makes a satisfactory balance of the two terms as mayor. Eight years, in which, as he recalls in the letter sent to the residents, have been "complex to manage due to storm Gloria, an unprecedented pandemic, a long and harsh post-pandemic and a war that has brought thousands of Ukrainians".
In his farewell letter, he states that he believes he has achieved the objective for which he ran for mayor, which was to improve the quality of life of the people of Lloret. "I humbly believe that we have achieved it", he affirms and gives as an example the 13 million euros that the Consistory has received from the Next Generation funds.
