Avellino mayor Nello Pizza has announced new appointments for bodies and companies connected to the municipality. The names were presented during a meeting of the council group leaders, according to reports from IrpiniaNews, Corriere dell'Irpinia and Ottopagine.

Piano di Zona: Picariello selected to lead

Nunziante Picariello, the mayor of Capriglia Irpina, was selected to lead the Piano di Zona.

The reports describe the move as an appointment or indication announced by Pizza. The formal municipal decrees or completed corporate registration documents were not published in the material reviewed.

Grande Srl: Petitto named president

Daniela Petitto was designated president of the board of directors of Grande Srl.

She was named alongside two other board members:

  • Noemi Somma
  • Massimo Mingarelli

Mingarelli's inclusion was described in the local coverage as providing Movimento 5 Stelle representation.

Pizza points to competence as selection criterion

Presenting the names, Pizza rejected the idea that the appointments reflected a political monopoly.

He said the selection criterion was competence and preparation, describing the nominees as competent professionals.

The sources differ in emphasis on the political affiliations of the nominees, so those characterizations should be read as reported political context rather than independently verified biographies.

What remains open: ACS

No decision had yet been announced for ACS.

According to Ottopagine, ACS remained without a defined future strategy. Possible options under discussion include relaunch, reorganization or a new corporate structure. The timing and substance of that decision remain unresolved.

At a glance

  • Announced by: Mayor Nello Pizza, during a meeting of council group leaders
  • Piano di Zona: Nunziante Picariello, mayor of Capriglia Irpina
  • Grande Srl board: Daniela Petitto, designated president, with Noemi Somma and Massimo Mingarelli
  • Stated criterion: competence and preparation
  • Still pending: future direction for ACS

What to watch next

The first point to follow is formalization. The reports so far describe announced indications and appointments, without publishing the formal acts that complete the process.

The second is ACS. Until the municipality defines whether it will pursue relaunch, reorganization or a new corporate structure, that file remains the open part of the current round of decisions.
