CALPE REMINDS THAT THE INSTALLATION OF UMBRELLAS AND SUNBEDS ON THE BEACHES BEFORE 9:30 AM WILL BE FINED.
As every summer, the Town Hall reminds beach users of the Municipal Ordinance for the Use and Management of the Coastline which prohibits the installation of chairs, sunbeds or sunshades before 9:30 a.m. so as not to hinder the cleaning of the beaches.
This measure prohibits the indiscriminate occupation of the public domain and makes special reference to the occupation of the beach with elements such as chairs, deckchairs and parasols from the early hours of the day.
This trend makes it difficult to clean the beaches, so the ordinance establishes that all items installed on the beaches before 9:30 a.m. may be removed and the owners denounced.
The ordinance also states that umbrellas, chairs or deckchairs left for more than three hours without the presence of their owners throughout the day may be removed. If there is evidence of these elements being installed without the presence of a responsible person or owner, the Town Council, through the Local Police and its cleaning staff, may remove these elements from the beach and transfer them to the Municipal Depot.
For some years now, the Town Council has received numerous complaints during the summer about the reservation of space on the beach, as when users arrive at the beach mid-morning they find metres of beach occupied without the owners of the elements installed being present.
The removal by the owners of the items deposited at the Local Police checkpoint will be carried out in accordance with the provisions of the tax ordinance regulating the police, good governance and taxation of non-sedentary sales.
47 PEOPLE START WORKING AT THE TOWN HALL AS PART OF THE LOCAL EMPLOYMENT PLAN
Today we have welcomed the staff hired under the Local Employment Plan 2024. In this edition there are 47 workers hired through this plan that will run until the end of the year and has an investment of 1,000,000 euros. The main objective of the Employment Plan is to promote employability among groups with special difficulties for social and labour insertion.
The provision of these positions has been carried out by competition and the duration of the contracts is until the end of the year. A total of 47 posts have been offered with the following professional categories: 3 posts of caretaker in the Casa de Cultura, 6 posts of caretaker in Sports, 1 caretaker in schools, 6 posts of cleaning staff, 8 posts of labourer, 2 posts of animal collection service operator, 15 posts of environmental watchman, 5 posts of administrative assistant and 1 post of administrative assistant in the library.
To take part in this competition, the applicants had to be registered in the public employment service with a minimum of 3 months of uninterrupted seniority, be registered in Calpe and be at least 16 years old.
Given that the Employment Plan is a social measure of job creation, which tries especially to promote the employability of those groups with special difficulties for social and labour insertion, in the bases of the Plan prevail social criteria such as being a beneficiary of Social Services aid, being a large family, being a job seeker, etc... The Plan is endowed with €1,000,000 and will involve the temporary hiring of these staff until 31 December.
The Councillor for Human Resources, Paqui Solivelles, stressed the importance of this plan: "This initiative not only responds to the need to strengthen municipal services, but is also a firm commitment to support those who need it most. With this investment of one million euros, we are not only expanding our staff, but also contributing to the socio-economic development of Calpe. We are committed to employment policies that allow us to cover situations of vulnerability".
