Waste abandonment, Melito calls for sanctions

The awareness campaign and appeals, repeatedly launched by the municipal administration, were not enough. The correct disposal of waste continues to be indigestible for too many families. The indolence to take charge of a virtuous differentiation of rubbish produced at home or in commercial establishments is costing dearly. Once identified, those responsible were sanctioned. The ongoing checks by the local police were decisive in this regard. Having been implemented for some time now, the control services, according to what has been announced, will not only continue but will be intensified during the summer period. The aim is to eradicate a pernicious attitude, harmful to the environment and the healthiness of the places frequented by citizens. «The checks on the municipal territory by the local police continue unabated – it was announced by the municipal building – aimed at combating behavior that does not comply with the rules of separate waste collection and ensuring greater urban decorum. In recent days, several violations have been ascertained relating to the incorrect disposal of waste and failure to comply with the methods established by the collection service. The relevant sanctions have been imposed for violators.”
