No quorum

According to Haykakan Zhamanak, newly elected Mayor of Ijevan Vardan Ghalumyan has been facing major obstacles since he took office. It is not the first time that he has failed to hold a Council of Elders meeting to approve the 2012 municipal budget. The members of Council of Elders who support former Mayor Varuzhan Nersisyan boycott the Council of Elders meetings, so there is no quorum, writes the daily.
