Sant Ferran residents engaged in discussion of town's development prospects

Foto presentacio sant ferranLast night members of the Sant Ferran community gathered to review the Formentera Council's road map for the town's centre in the years ahead. Council chair Jaume Ferrer and Rafael González, the administration's infrastructure councillor, together with senior members of specialist architecture firm Estudi Lunar, shared details of the project in order to engage residents in discussion and get input on possible improvements.

Pitched as an articulation of the Sant Ferran identity, the project envisions repositioning the town as the island's cultural stronghold, a bid that will rest on constructing cultural facilities on the current site of the town's school. Dubbed a “centre for the arts,” plans for the complex include a theatre/auditorium, community centre and school of art. The firm hopes to fit the town with a cutting-edge public amenities infrastructure that is specially tooled to promote social gatherings and use of public spaces.

Introductory efforts
The gathering served to chart the project's initial phases, which officials expect will begin November 1, 2017. On carrers Guillem de Montgrí and València work will be focused on beautifying the streets for residents and cyclists. The two arterials will remain open to vehicles though additional plans are afoot for a change in the direction of traffic, a measure aimed at stemming south-north crossings of the town and forcing drivers to instead use the nearby roundabout. The current draft project was designed by Open Fabric, a firm specialised in urbanism.

Formentera joins International Dance Day's list of backers

Foto actuacio de dansaThe Formentera Council's education and culture departments have announced plans by students of the municipal school of music and dance to stage a performance on Friday, April 28 at 6.30pm, in observance of International Dance Day. As part of the special day, which was officially proclaimed April 29, the young performers will tackle contemporary and Spanish dance routines and pronounce a short reading on Sant Francesc's plaça de la Constitució.

By focusing on dance in unconventional places, the performance's organisers hope to take the art form to the streets and give it visibility. The aim, they say, is to engage both young and old in dance appreciation. It will perhaps give way to an entire plaza of young people dancing in sync, even if only for a few minutes.

Crews scrub down Formentera's water reservoirs

Foto neteja diposit es pujolsEl Consell de Formentera, a través de Medi Ambient, informa que Aqualia ja ha finalitzat les tasques de neteja i desinfecció dels tres dipòsits d’aigua de Formentera, els de Sant Ferran, Ca Marí i Es Pujols, que abasteixen als diferents nuclis de població, donant compliment al Reial Decret 140/2003, pel qual s'estableixen els criteris sanitaris de la qualitat d'aigua de consum humà, i del Decret 53/12, sobre vigilància de les aigües de consum humà de les Illes Balears.

La realització d’aquests treballs és important per assegurar la qualitat de l’aigua emmagatzemada als dipòsits, que posteriorment és distribuïda a tota la població. Les tasques realitzades han consistit en el seu buidat, la neteja interior i la desinfecció amb hipoclorit sòdic. A més, s’han revisat les vàlvules, arquetes, canonades i altres elements, aprofitant el buidatge que se’n fa per realitzar les tasques de manteniment necessari.

Aquestes actuacions que Aqualia porta a terme són per garantir la qualitat de l’aigua que arriba a les aixetes de tots els usuaris. A més, l’empresa realitza un exhaustiu control analític de l’aigua subministrada en el que es controlen paràmetres tant fisicoquímics com microbiològics. En total, al 2016 es van realitzar al voltant de 4.450 determinacions analítiques, segons han informat.

Neteja de la xarxa de clavegueram
D’altra banda, Aqualia també està portant a terme les tasques de neteja del clavegueram d’Es Caló, Es Pujols i de la major part dels nuclis de Formentera. Aquestes tasques formen part del pla preventiu i de posada a punt de la xarxa de clavegueram per garantir el millor servei de cara a la temporada estival. Concretament s’elimina la brutícia, fulles i papers que s’acumulen en el seu interior i que dificulten la recollida d’aigua els dies de pluja.

Per fer la neteja s’utilitza un camió i es dissenya una ruta a seguir pels operaris, tenint en compte la situació dels pous i els sentits de circulació dels carrers a netejar.
