The plenary session of Ontinyent gave the green light to the new waste ordinance with the only votes in favor from Ens Uneix, ignoring more than 5,000 citizen signatures against it. Compromís denounces the government's triumphalism and poor management, pointing out constant delays in collections and the lack of drop-off areas. For the resident, garbage remains an unresolved problem.
Collection technology is not advancing at the pace of promises 🚮
While the government boasts of modernization, the promised selective collection systems and smart containers are not arriving. The lack of drop-off areas and limited hours cause collapses at clean points. Without a functional app that provides real-time information, citizens rely on outdated schedules. Waste management requires efficient route software and fill-level sensors, not just ordinances.
The ordinance worth less than the paper of the signatures 📄
5,000 signatures weigh less than one vote from Ens Uneix. It seems that in Ontinyent, democracy is measured by kilos of paper, not by popular will. Meanwhile, the containers overflow and the government applauds its own management. Perhaps the next step will be to pass an ordinance banning complaints, because here the only thing not being collected properly are the residents' ideas.
