Councillors Fredrick Henriques, Yatin Kamurlekar, and Deepak Naik highlighted issues with giving fish vendors a free hand and allocating them space in the new fish market.
They urged the chairperson to draft guidelines and sign a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with vendors to help the council secure the legal rights over the fish market.
They also objected to the urgent repairs of staff quarters without preparing a technical report after the technical team's site inspection, citing safety concerns.
The council has resolved to take over the dilapidated Hindu crematorium at Khariwada, Vasco. A proposal to install an electric furnace was postponed.
It also resolved not to allow outsiders at the Bogda Hindu crematorium, alleging illegal activities and harming its reputation.
