The councilor pointed out that the PP “once again resorts to catastrophism as a political strategy,” creating an image “far from the reality” experienced by citizens. “Anyone who hears their claims might think that Gandia is an unsafe city, when the reality is precisely the opposite: Gandia is a city of order, dynamic and growing,” she stated.
Likewise, she criticized the partial use of data by the Popular Party, emphasizing that the city continues to attract population, economic activity, and investment, “which demonstrates confidence in the current management model.” Regarding security, the councilor defended that Gandia is a safe city, as reflected in the assessments of State Security Forces and Corps officials. In this regard, she highlighted the high crime resolution rate of the National Police station in the city.
Regarding police presence, she was emphatic: “No matter how many times a falsehood is repeated, it does not become truth. The Police are on the street, with a proximity model that includes the figure of the neighborhood police officer on different shifts, morning and afternoon.” The municipal official also highlighted the local government's investment effort in security matters, with the incorporation of new material resources for the Local Police, including two vans and a pick-up type all-terrain vehicle, with a total investment exceeding 340,000 euros.
This is complemented by the progressive reinforcement of the staff. In recent weeks, 12 new officers and one inspector have joined, and six agents will soon join on commission of service. Furthermore, the City Council has announced the call for a selection process for 17 new agents, aiming to increase the staff to the planned 190 officers.
The councilor also criticized the Popular Party's stance on these investments, recalling that the same group submitted budget amendments that involved the elimination of vehicles intended for the Local Police.
Finally, she urged the popular spokesperson to “abandon confrontation and alarmism” and focus on resolving real problems in coordination with other administrations, such as the lack of telephone coverage at the Palace of Justice, a situation that—as she pointed out— remains unresolved despite previous announcements.
“"Gandia needs serious management, institutional collaboration, and solutions, not speeches that generate unfounded alarm"
