– The sling of communes once morest the Canton and the City
The emergency voting process of several million for the homeless on the Intercommunal Fund is going badly in Thônex, Satigny and Hermance.

The Municipal Council of Thônex voted Tuesday evening, by 15 yes once morest 6 no, a resolution to oppose the granting by the Intermunicipal Fund of a subsidy of 6.2 million for the reception of the homeless. This is a strong signal, which, an important nuance, would not concern the principle of the decision, but its form.
“It’s quite rare to vote for a resolution to show our dissatisfaction,” said administrative adviser Bruno Da Silva (PDC). An ire caused by the “way in which the operation was carried out by the Canton”, and by the “pressure” of the Association of Geneva municipalities (ACG) to release funds and reopen premises in an emergency. For the record, on April 3, State Councilor Thierry Apothéloz complained on social networks regarding the inaction of the municipalities. And on April 6, the ACG voted an extraordinary credit.
