The administrator of the super condominium of the residential tourist village of Ippocampo, the lawyer Michele Pepechained himself this morning outside Palazzo San Domenico as a sign of protest, to draw attention to the atavistic critical issues of the village.
Recently, in the village area, Michele Pepe had held a meeting with the four mayoral candidates of the city.
The main critical issues raised are cclosure of the over fifty-year subdivision: A problem which has seen the failure to complete the works necessary for the safety and liveability of the village. Reconstruction work on the storm surge protection dune: These works, essential for coastal protection, have not yet been tested and are in a state of abandonment. Absence of safety measures: The lack of adequate security measures puts the safety of residents and visitors at risk. Precarious sanitation situation: The “aquatic canal” has been reduced to a basin of stagnant water, without any maintenance, representing a danger to public health. Lack of disinfestation, rodent control and cleaning: The roads and free beaches are not adequately maintained, worsening the hygienic conditions of the village. Problems with waste collection and disposal: The waste collection service entails duplicate costs for the owners, who already contribute significantly with IMU and TARI taxes.
The absence of concrete interventions by the Municipality of Manfredonia has exasperated the residents, who have decided to join in a sit-in to make their voices heard. The participants in the event requested immediate interventions to resolve the problems exposed, underlining how the tax revenue deriving from their taxes has never been used to benefit the needs of the district.
Michele Pepe is the spokesperson for a clear message, namely the need for timely and concrete intervention to guarantee the liveability and safety of the territory, and that the Municipality of Manfredonia takes note of the legitimate requests of the citizens and works to resolve the highlighted problems .
