Calp City Council has already prepared a package of measures to deal with the consequences of the coronavirus and the state of alert, and a budget amendment of EUR 1 million is being made to implement these measures.
The Mayor, Ana Sala, has announced that several lines of action will be put in place, firstly, emergency social measures that will be activated immediately and that will make it possible to take care of the most vulnerable people, that is, families at risk of exclusion, whose situation has been made worse by the state of alert.
Aguas de Calpe, the company responsible for water supply and distribution, has approved a series of special measures in response to the alarm situation created by COVID-19, the first of which is to extend the payment deadline for those persons who are unable to pay their bills within the voluntary payment period without any kind of surcharge.
