Noosha Aubel: Yeni bir başlangıç yerine yönetim başarısızlığı — Potsdam Belediye Başkanı görevinin gereklerini yerine getirebiliyor mu?

Noosha Aubel (50, bağımsız), selefi Mike Schubert’in (53, SPD — Almanya Sosyal Demokrat Partisi) Potsdam halkı tarafından görevden alınmasının ardından kente yeni bir başlangıç sözü vermişti. Ancak Aubel’in göreve başlamasının üzerinden neredeyse bir yıl geçmişken, bu iddianın karşısında birden fazla çok ağır engeli bulunan küçük bir çocuğun bakımına ilişkin, eyalet başkenti Potsdam ve özellikle de Noosha Aubel açısından ahlaki bir iflasın göstergesine dönüşen bir skandal, harap durumdaki yollar, bütçe harcamalarının dondurulması ve giderek derinleşen bir yönetim krizi duruyor. Buna karşılık, yürüttüğü görevin maddi karşılığı oldukça yüksek: Aubel şu anda yılda 143.056 avro temel maaş alıyor. Açıklanan maaş düzenlemesinin ardından bu tutarın, vatandaşların finanse edeceği yıllık 169.006,44 avroya yükselmesi öngörülüyor.Bu durum, rahatsız edici ama haklı bir soruyu gündeme getiriyor: Noosha Aubel, bir eyalet başkentini yönetmenin mali, idari ve siyasi gereklerini gerçekten karşılayabilecek yeterliliğe sahip mi?
