The PSIB of Sant Josep has expressed its indignation at the “deplorable” state of the children’s playground on Avenida San Agustín, in Cala de Bou, considering that it presents an “unacceptable” situation for a public space intended for the use of minors.
According to the socialist party in a statement, the facilities have deficiencies that put the safety of children at risk, which, in their opinion, shows a prolonged lack of maintenance. Among the problems detected, the PSIB has pointed out the existence of broken and abandoned equipment, with dismantled and unusable play elements.
Also, the socialists have warned of the presence of graffiti and vandalism graffiti, accumulated dirt and rusted metal elements, circumstances that reinforce the feeling of abandonment of the enclosure. “A playground should be a meeting point for families and a safe space for minors, but in this case it has become a neglected place,” they have lamented.
From the PSIB consider that the state of the park conveys an image of “abandonment and neglect” by the Administration, and have called for immediate action to reverse the situation. In this regard, they have urged the City Council of Sant Josep to act quickly and establish regular maintenance protocols to prevent similar situations from being repeated in other parts of the municipality.
“The safety and well-being of children must be an absolute priority,” stressed the socialists, who are confident that urgent measures will be taken to recover this public space for the use of families in the area.
