• Raizales preocupados por el ruido y el desorden solicitan intervención de autoridades en su sector
• Exigen detener las carreras de motos nocturnas
(San Andrés Isla, enero 20 de 2018). El pasado jueves, el gobernador Ronald Housni se reunió con la Asociación de Raizales del Sur, con el fin de tratar temas que preocupan a los habitantes del sector sur de la isla y ante los cuales solicitan la intervención directa de las autoridades del Departamento.
En primera instancia, el grupo de nativos manifestó su creciente preocupación por la proliferación de “pick ups” en un sector que tradicionalmente ha sido silencioso. Al respecto, el gobernador explicó que se están buscando soluciones concertadas con los propietarios de estos equipos de sonido para ubicarlos en un lugar apartado de las zonas residenciales en donde se ejercerá control de esa actividad. Mientras se encuentra el predio adecuado y se establecen las reglas de juego con los interesados, la Asociación raizal insistió en que las autoridades controlen el volumen y duración de las fiestas que utilizan estos amplificadores.
La Gobernación Departamental por medio del Grupo de Talento Humano (COPASST) invita a todos los funcionarios a participar y vincularse en la jornada “Viernes del funcionario en forma” que se llevará a cabo el viernes 14 de noviembre a partir 4:00 a 5:30 p. m. en el corredor de los Edificios Coral Palace.
