Former Airola councillor Giuseppe Stravino said the Falzarano administration's inefficiency and inadequacy harmed the town and its finances, according to NTR24.

Stravino said a subsequent Benevento court injunction required the municipality to pay about €81,000, roughly €27,000 more than the amount sought. The figures are claims made in his political statement and have not been independently verified.

Stravino was among the councillors who submitted a formal no-confidence motion against Mayor Vincenzo Falzarano. According to the Gazzetta di Benevento, the motion cited urban planning, flooding, water interruptions, road conditions, waste management and an ecological-island project reported as costing €183,000.

NTR24 reports that the no-confidence motion passed on 12 October 2026 with seven votes, ending Falzarano's term before the scheduled elections. The municipality was reported to be entering a transition period pending appointment of a prefectural commissioner. No response from the Falzarano administration was reported.
