The words of the councilor for Urban Liveability

“I thank the Local Police for their constant commitment against all forms of illegality and for respecting the rules, to the advantage of commercial and restaurant activities that work with honesty and sacrifice”, stated theCouncilor Carla Palone.

"On the subject of waste, we had announced a further crackdown on uncivilized people who, even when 'away', continue to dirty and pollute our city. The activities to combat illicit activities and repress crimes are always accompanied by awareness campaigns, which we hope will increasingly impact the fight against the hateful phenomenon of waste migration".
