MARINA DI MASSA – “The wave of thefts that have occurred in Marina di Massa in recent times is worrying. In the space of a couple of weeks there have been many reports and complaints from commercial activities that have suffered damage to structures and thefts” complains councilor Daniele Tarantino who was contacted by several merchants.
The councilor met with a representation of Marinelli traders who highlighted many difficulties. “Evidently we are faced with an escalation of thefts and vandalism, both in the city and in particular in Marina di Massa, comments councilor Tarantino – The traders of Marina have expressed considerable difficulties in conducting the activities and many worries and fears in operating faced with a succession of episodes linked to crime. There are too many thefts in shops with damage also to structures. In short, fear is growing.”
“I ask the mayor to organize a meeting with the police forces and the Prefecture of Massa-Carrara to carefully evaluate the situation and develop actions to combat these worrying phenomena – he addresses the mayor Daniele Tarantino – It is necessary first intervene on safety by implementing appropriate strategies. The cameras for video surveillance are good but we must activate prevention measures.” However, the councilor added, the operators also complained about the lack of attention towards the Marina area: cleaning, ordinary maintenance interventions and also involvement in view of the 2024 tourist season: “Discontent is growing – Tarantino comments – precisely because Marina is feels left aside. It is necessary to intervene both on safety and on other issues. I believe it is useful to listen to the citizens and those who work in Marina di Massa”.
