NOW MURCIA calls for measures to the municipal government to prevent urinating in the street "is the norm" the days of the Bando de la Huerta and Burial of the Sardine.

The councilor Alicia Morales affirms that "unlike in other municipalities, in ours we look the other way with this problem, which has led many people to act with full sense of impunity in this regard".

The spokeswoman of Now Murcia notes that "this issue affects the center of Murcia every weekend at dawn, but reaches intolerable limits in public spaces during the celebration of macro events such as WAM and, above all, the days of the Bando including 'La Repanocha' '- and the Burial "

For all these reasons, Murcia will now take a motion to the next Plenary so that in those days, especially in those two days of the Spring Festival, increase the number of public restrooms and signal their presence adequately and effectively: that the police carry out their obligation to punish whoever urinates in the street, and to make an advertising campaign and prior awareness and simultaneous to those dates mupis, social networks, etc. - explaining this new municipal policy of promoting public toilets and imposition of sanctions.

"You can not continue allowing," he adds, "that a large number of people, most of them young, urinate without any dissimulation those days in the street, between containers or vehicles, in streets, squares and gardens, and even in the portals of the buildings, something that has become so common that numerous buildings of the center have been forced to hire private security those days.There are streets that in those dates are authentic rivers of urine and with a nauseating smell, and everywhere there are puddles, especially after mid afternoon. "

Alicia Morales recalls that the Ordinances of the City of Murcia state that "it corresponds to the City Council, within the scope of its municipality, to protect these assets, such as public health, especially of minors, as well as the rational use of public spaces Municipalities, facilitating their use under appropriate conditions that prevent their degradation and that allow their enjoyment by all citizens in health conditions ".

On the other hand, in the case of the Road Cleaning Ordinance, the realization of "physiological needs" is established as one of the "Prohibitions".

"The responsibility, then, of the City Council in this matter is beyond doubt," concludes the mayor, "as well as the permissiveness with which it has been acting, a permissiveness that, as can be seen on the Internet, does not exist in other nearby municipalities. Cartagena, Alicante or Granada, for this reason, we trust that all municipal groups will support our motion and that the City Council will get down to work so that this basic issue of hygiene and public health begins to be eradicated. around the corner and you should start taking these measures into account.
