Hablamos con el alcalde de Roda de Berà, Pere Virgili, justo en el ecuador de su término. Un mandato que ya estará marcado, seguro por las obras del túnel. También son notables proyectos como la nueva biblioteca y las inversiones en la red de agua. El año pasado comentó que el consejo estaba en un momento difícil en términos de finanzas. Ahora en que situación es? A nuestra situación "complicada" le gustaría muchos consejos. Siempre hemos elegido no ir a una relación de deuda (8k, mejor calidad, obra maestra, muy detallada: 1.1)

A look at the current mandat

We interview the mayor of Roda de Berà, Pere Virgili, at a key moment in his term, marked by significant projects such as the works of the tunnel and the new library, as well as important investments in the water network.

Financial situation of the consistory

The mayor emphasizes that, despite the economic difficulties he mentioned last year, his management has allowed to maintain financial stability. With a debt of 14.5%, the council seeks the balance between loans and own resources, closing in 2024 with a positive remnant.

Necessary investments and improvements

When it comes to investment, Virgil emphasizes the importance of continuing to seek external funds, especially to improve the water network. It emphasizes the need to supervise the state of wells and deposits, despite the statements that the drought has ended.

The future of the library

The new library project has suffered a reverse with the fall of Cal Guivernau. Virgil shares that a grant is being sought for the recovery of this heritage, with the aim of creating a space accessible to the community.

Relocation of equipment

According to the mayor, the new library’s location should be located on Miramar Street, near a children’s playground and a retirement home, to take advantage of the influx of family and community activities.

Public housing in Roda de Berà

With regard to public housing, Virgil reports that the Generalitat has assigned a plot of 3200 m² in Francaset for the construction of new homes. The mayor hopes that the new projects will benefit from local residents, as there is a shortage of homes available.

Tourist flats management

Roda de Berà is in a complex situation with a large number of tourist flats. The City Council seeks to limit the creation of new homes for tourist use to protect the offer of housing for permanent residents.

Safety in the municipality

Security is a priority, with 15% of the budget dedicated to this area. The Mayor emphasizes the collaboration with the Mossos d’Esquadra and the implementation of control systems to improve citizen security.

Tunnel works and community impact

The work on the tunnel has been discomfort for the neighbors, with night work. Virgil expresses its frustration due to the lack of compensation appropriate for the alterations that these works have caused.

Preparations for the summer

With the arrival of the summer, the City Council is preparing to face the tourist season with measures such as the installation of washes on the beaches and the cleaning of public spaces, trying to manage the water responsibly.

A look at Futur

The mayor concludes that, despite the challenges, Roda de Berà is on a path of continuous improvement. Its management seeks to balance the needs of the community with the sustainable development of the municipality.
