Departure of Arnaud Mounier, right arm of the mayor of Toulouse: “It’s a break, an eviction”
“Remember what Arnaud [Mounier] taught you and put it to work. “Here is in essence the tribute that Jean-Luc Moudenc would have made during the farewell party of his right arm, Friday, September 30, at the Capitol. A few days earlier, Tout-Toulouse indeed discovered the surprise retraining of Arnaud Mounier in … scientific mediation. As reported The Midi Dispatchthe omnipotent chief of staff of the mayor LR of Toulouse has indeed just been appointed deputy general manager of the Cité de l’Espace.
At 36, here is this political dive on the rails to eventually replace Jean-Baptiste Desbois, the very wired current director of Semeccel, the mixed economy company (SEM) managing the Cité de l’Espace on behalf of the town hall. The choice surprised more than one, starting with members of the municipal majority. “Jean-Claude Dardelet (deputy mayor and chairman of the board of directors of the SEM, editor’s note) told us that a jury had considered three people, but I was not one of them”, underlines – under cover of anonymity – one of these elected officials serving on the board of directors. “Philippe Perrin (former astronaut and disgraced majority elected, editor’s note) was interested in the job and made it known, but he was not approached during this recruitment process”, indicates another.
Monday, September 26, it was with annoyance that the town hall partners discovered the news. “We had to study the advisability of creating a position of deputy general manager. But Arnaud Mounier was presented to us that day as the successful candidate for the post and as the successor to Jean-Baptiste Desbois. We would have liked to be concerted. It is for this reason that I abstained”, explains Thierry Cotelle, regional adviser. . .
