🏛️ TOWN HALL MEETING SUMMARY: Key agreements and debates in Roda de Berà

Here is a quick breakdown of the most important points from the latest session:

📅 2027 Calendar

Local Holidays: It has been unanimously approved that the local holidays for 2027 will be August 24th (Sant Bartomeu) and December 7th.

🎾 L'Eixample Sports Zone

New 2026 rates: Approved by the mayor's casting vote.

The debate: The opposition voted against it, criticizing price hikes between 48% and 100% by the concessionary company. The government defends that prices needed an update (after a year without changes) to balance costs and ensure quality service without losses.

🤝 Metropolitan Impulse

Joining the Camp de Tarragona Association: A 3,500€ budget amendment has been approved to join this entity.

The debate: The opposition warns it might reduce local prominence. The mayor considers it strategic, especially for improving public transport and connectivity with neighboring towns.

🗣️ Questions & Answers (Local Issues)

💧 Water Fountains: Despite the heat, only fountains in playgrounds will remain open. Ornamental fountains will stay turned off to prevent water loss through evaporation.

🌊 La Barquera Promenade: The Spanish Government's project will transform it into a more natural environment (using wood and gravel) to help beach growth. The Town Hall requests keeping the existing street furniture and palm trees to help stabilize the sand.

🗑️ Bin Cleaning: In early July, a deep cleaning will be carried out underneath all waste containers to remove accumulated dirt and odors.

🏥 ER Services at the CAP (Health Center): This summer, the health center will close in the afternoons again due to a shortage of available doctors in the area.

👮 More Security: 260 candidates have applied for 5 new Local Police positions. Testing starts in July, aiming to have them active by August to tackle anti-social behavior.
