Ordinary public meetings in the parishes of the municipality
The usual ordinary public meeting of the Municipal Executive was held yesterday in Santa Cruz do Bispo, specifically in the Parish Social Center of Santa Cruz do Bispo, following a decentralization strategy.
The City Council, remember, approved in November last year, the decentralization of the monthly public meetings of the Executive by the parishes of the county, in alphabetical order.
The goal is to bring citizens closer to the local government, providing information about the workings of the municipal bodies and encouraging civic participation in solving individual and collective problems.
The ordinary public meeting of the Municipal Executive in Santa Cruz do Bispo was conducted by the president of the municipality, Luísa Salgueiro.
Present was the president of the Parish Union of Perafita, Lavra and Santa Cruz do Bispo, Lurdes Queirós, who addressed in her speech, the degradation of Gonçalves Zarco street and the constraints experienced at the start of the new school year in terms of public transport, including timetables and transport capacity of vehicles.
About the Gonçalves Zarco street, Luísa Salgueiro clarified that, given the dimension of the artery, it was concluded that there was a need for an intervention sectioned by sections, in order to solve the existing problems in each location.
Regarding the difficulties in the transportation of students, the vice-president and responsible for Mobility and Transport, Carlos Mouta, explained that they were due to Maré's difficulty in securing drivers to provide this service and that, given the size of some arteries, the company opted to use smaller vehicles. Still, Carlos Mouta said that he is interceding with the operator so that the situation is resolved as soon as possible, including the possibility of using larger buses.
Still regarding education, Luísa Salgueiro mentioned the ongoing investments in the school park - giving as an example the Agudela EB (Lavra) and the Boa Nova (Leça da Palmeira) and Abel Salazar (S. Mamede de Infesta) secondary schools - and in terms of Local Curriculum of Education and AEC - Activities of Curricular Enrichment.
Among the issues addressed in the period before the agenda, we highlight the situation of Petrogal workers and the training necessary for their reintegration into the labor market, the process of disaggregation of the parishes, the review of the Local Housing Strategy, the traffic congestion at the traffic circle of the AEP and Circunvalação and the construction of the new Perafita Health Center.
