Likewise, the popular candidate has considered that it is essential to make a change to the current management of the market because, “just as a person who lives for rent does not have to take charge of the maintenance works of the building of which he is a tenant, as it is of a municipal building, it is the city council that should take charge of the investments for the improvement of the property, such as the installation of LED lighting or the installation of photovoltaic panels, paid for by these merchants due to the refusal of the consistory to collaborate with them» .

He added that another of the concerns of the current board of directors of the Mercado del Carmen is waste management and he conveyed his intention to work for the placement of organic and recycling containers in the vicinity of the market, which would be collected on Monday to Saturday, “instead of how it is managed now, that the waste from the weekend is not collected until Monday and as a consequence the neighbors have to live with bad odors, especially during the hot months.”
Finally, the retailers have asked that the figure of the authority that existed previously be recovered and that when the person in charge of doing so retires, his position has not been covered. Pilar Miranda has accepted their request and has conveyed her intention to recover this paper “in which the town hall will offer merchants a liaison person to whom they can contact in the event that someone breaks the rules or creates a problem, so that act quickly and always guarantee security in this space.
