With the increase in infections, the population also feels the need to receive more timely information about the Covid situation. That is why Mayor Giuseppe Falcomatà has decided to return to an old custom, that of direct to inform the people of Reggio about what is happening in the city.
“Let’s not lose the habit of meeting through our live broadcasts, especially in these weeks when, even in the province, there is an increase in infections. It is even more important at this time to take up information almost daily.” to keep everyone updated on the news. “
In the live broadcast that ended a few minutes ago, the mayor, on his Facebook page, has summary what are the new prevention measures that came into effect with the last DPCM. Which activities are suspended from 6pm, 9pm and which can continue until midnight. Increase, again from smart working, what happened in the world of sports and local fairs and festivals. All the measures that citizens have learned in recent days, from the last speech of Premier Conte, but there is one in particular that was not yet clear: the provision, planned for mayors, to close streets and squares of the city where they could create meetings.
“The mayors have taken a clear position on the latest decree – Falcomatà reaffirmed, as he had already done in an interview with CityNow. The Government has discharged the responsibility of enforcing this measure to the first citizens. mayors of the 10 metropolitan cities met with the Minister of the Interior “.
The “curfew” begins
“The closure of streets and squares to the public, every day from 9:00 pm, is unduly a” curfew. ” In fact, parking will not be allowed, but only traffic for those, for example, who have to return home. The goal is to avoid meetings.
Minister Lamorgese accepted the requests of the mayors and a few minutes ago the call for the Public Order and Security Committee arrived, which will also be attended by the Prefect and the Chief of Police. The order to close streets and squares has not yet been issued. First of all, I would like to hear from the ASP and the trade associations to also understand which areas should be affected by the new provision. It is not a choice, but an obligation.
We do not have the resources of the local police to enforce it. We do not stop, but everyone must do their part in full performance of the functions.
Requests to Minister Lamorgese
“We asked the minister 3 things:
-
the government’s commitment to enforce the provisions, we don’t have the resources to do so;
-
funds for stewards, people who will have to supervise to make sure no one violates the ordinance;
-
funds for temporary and indefinite duration hiring and to implement overtime resources for law enforcement officers. “
The meeting, as announced by the mayor, and the subsequent signing of the order, is scheduled for Friday October 23.
We hope that these measures are sufficient to avoid a new confinement – Falcomatà explained. We want to work in this direction ”.
The call to the young
Finally, a call to the new generations:
“I appeal above all to the young, we can see in the statistics that this new wave affects the age group between 20 and 30 years, but the elderly are not exempt. Young people can infect their families and unfortunately for the elderly the virus remains deadly. Wearing a mask is not a fashion or a choice, but an obligation. We must respect ourselves and those around us ”.
The mayor also announced that in the next live broadcast he will update citizens on the contagion situation in the city and in the metropolitan area of Reggio Calabria.
