Javea Grapevine 191 | Page 4

Dear Friends Foreword from the Mayor of Jávea, José Chulvi It is always a pleasure to address you, taking advantage of the platform that the Grapevine generously offers me. Throughout May we launched an important initiative to make Xàbia a safer place in the event of forest fires: I am referring to the informative talks that the company Medi XXI and the police and firefighters have given in the urbanisations. In the event of an emergency, this information could make the difference between being safe or putting our lives and possessions at risk. These meetings are only the first part of the fire prevention plan. At the same time, we are working to increase security perimeters in urban areas, clean up the mountain and public plots and study systems for natural barriers and water against fire, at strategic points.
