As of today, Calp will start imposing fines on all those who do not comply with the established time slots and conditions for sports and walks.
Since these activities on the street were permitted last Saturday, May 2nd, the local police have been informing passers-by of the conditions under which these exits should take place. From now on, however, fines will be imposed due to the importance of respecting these rules.
Throughout the week, the local police continued to sanction non-compliance with other rules set out in the state of alert, filing nine complaints and taking 2,607 recordings of personal data between Tuesday 5 and Thursday 7 May.
The Mayor of Calp, Ana Sala, declared: "We must not relax; we must not forget that the virus is still among us and it is very important that we continue to follow the rules" and appealed to the responsibility and common sense of the citizens of Calp.
She also recalled the importance of continuing to take preventive measures, such as frequent hand washing, not touching the face and keeping a safe distance of two metres.
More police officers
On the other hand, the City Council will speed up the recruitment of new local police officers to carry out a check of all those premises that are due to open in the coming weeks.
The recruitment of 10 new police officers is planned for the summer, and another 4 to fill vacancies.
