The return of Vlietinck, who previously held the Public Works and ICT portfolios, means a lot for Mayor Jan Morbee. “His broad professional experience and previous contributions as an alderman make him the ideal replacement for Anthony,” he said. And Vlietinck himself is also enthusiastic. He sees it as his duty to return to the political arena. “Although it all came a bit unexpected, I had no choice but to take on this responsibility and use my experience for our municipality.”
