The pact made today is the culmination of the good practices carried out so far”, concluded Mayor Celentano.
Meanwhile, remaining on the topic of urban security, the municipal administration has approved another council resolution which concerns the feasibility project, to be presented to the Ministry of the Interior, to implement the video surveillance system on the Marina and in via Monfalcone , costing 65 thousand euros.
