The town council of Catral has announced a major amendment to its Citizen Coexistence Ordinance, increasing penalties for illegal waste disposal. From the previous fine of two hundred and fifty euros, the new penalty will now be one thousand four hundred euros. This change, approved in a session on the twenty-fifth of September, seeks to reinforce environmental protection in the region.

With this new regulation, the council aims to deter ongoing illegal dumping practices, which not only harm the environment but also impose severe financial burdens on local authorities. The cost of clearing illegally dumped debris currently exceeds two thousand euros for each site that municipal services must address.

The council’s initiative aligns with its commitment to sustainability and the preservation of Catral’s traditional landscape. By imposing higher fines, the local government is taking a firm stance against practices that threaten both the environment and community cohesion.

This measure demonstrates Catral’s dedication to fostering a cleaner, more sustainable environment for its residents and future generations. Local authorities hope that these increased penalties will encourage better compliance and respect for public spaces.
