“Couldn’t we have waited for the Covid emergency to evolve before changing waste collection in Cagliari?”

Reviewing your decisions, suspending the new garbage collection system would be a proper and smart act. The Cagliari City Council’s decision to change the waste collection system while the city, like the whole of Italy, is in code red due to the coronavirus is undoubtedly an untimely measure, taking into account the objective difficulties that individual citizens find themselves in . , families, companies. These simple considerations would have been enough, without losing face, to suspend a measure that has generated so much chaos in the city and above all so many protests over the unpopularity of an election that had to be weighed with greater responsibility. The story that users would eventually save as little as ten euros a year does not convince about the need to change a system that, after all, had entered the mentality and organization of family life, especially in those of large condominiums that also involves ” organization of the movement, washing and sanitation of tubs that cannot be stored in the corridors of the buildings, also for obvious hygienic-sanitary reasons.




To these problems are added those of the possible contagion by coronavirus and dirt that, with the exposure of the individual tubs to put on the sidewalks, we then carry inside the house, including the excrement (in vulgar term “pee”) of the dogs that the owners, who do not live in the condominium, leave it alone, especially in the uncontrollable night hours. So, he wonders, why isn’t the dog-walking regulation enforced at the same time, forcing owners to take them to urinate on the street and not on the sidewalk? There is an obligation to keep dogs on a leash and at a distance of one meter fifty from the walls of houses, but no one respects it. The obligation of the water bottle to dilute the pee, is a simple joke, a delight, that does not mitigate the effects. Bringing home the tubs soiled by dog ​​urine is not hygienic and requires washing and disinfecting which entails difficulties, taking into account the size of the tubs and our kitchens. Here we can go back to the old system, in fact we must, precisely for the reasons (but there are others) that we just explained. It takes courage, humility, and common sense. Which are qualities of good public administrators.
