Newly-elected Wolfgat Sub-council chairperson, Solomon Philander, presided over his first sub-council meeting at the Lentegeur chambers today.
Mr Philander, who is also the ward councillor for Ward 79 (Beacon Valley, parts of Eastridge, the Mitchell’s Plain central business district, including the Town Centre and parts of Portland) was elected last week, following the death of former chairman, Sheval Arendse, who was also the councillor for Ward 82 (Tafelsig), on August 7 (“Councillor dies”, Plainsman, August 21).
