In the morning of Friday the city council has proceeded to remove the planters of the street Diana, installed when the zone was pedestrianized. The councilman of environment, Josep Crespo, Explained in the Thursday plenary that they withdraw because "They involve a lot of staff costs for maintenance" because people steal them, the use of paper and even destroys plants.
Some statements that have surprised the Party, whose councilor Pepa Sivera He has stated that he does not understand that personnel cost, since his care is performed during working hours. Sivera has also denounced the time chosen for the removal of the planters, on the morning of a Friday in July in which there are many people who pass through the center of Dénia.
The popular group, as he conveyed the council during the regular full month of July, requires an alternative to this decision, since they consider that "It is essential that you take care of the image of a tourist city like Dénia". Therefore they suggest to the mayor to install more surveillance in the area or even bet on artificial plants, as they did in Glorieta Or in several roundabouts "with very good result".
Josep Crespo explained during the plenary session that his department is studying the most viable options to replace the planters.
