Another element that defines our
quality of life is health care. I can
announce that, together with the
Councillor for Health, Pilar Zamora,
I have met with the commissioner in
Denia to insist that health services
in Xàbia be reinforced during the
summer months with the greatest
influx of people. Consequently we
will soon have operational an Arenal
Health Centre, which will provide
a more proactive service, avoiding
long waits.
And now to address a problem that
concerns us all, the tiger mosquito;
I have asked the Alicante Provincial
Government to provide a budget to
fight this plague.
We are aware that the presence of
the tiger mosquito can cause severe
discomfort, but it is an issue that cannot
be addressed alone by the Town Hall.
For this we need the cooperation
of other public administrations and
home-owners, to comply with the
advice provided by the Department
of Environment. This year we started
work earlier to ensure we are ready
for the summer campaign.
