(ANSA) - ROME, DEC 28 - "Let's take stock of our extraordinary cleaning plan. There are tangible improvements in the city, even if there are still problems in various areas. Rome is cleaner than we found it, not yet as it deserves". This was said by the mayor of Rome Roberto Gualtieri during the press conference on waste in the Campidoglio. "The commitment was decisive in order to avoid a crisis that would certainly have been determined during the holidays due to structural problems and an increase in waste production", he explained. "The road is still long, Rome deserves excellence", added the mayor.
Gualtieri announces a short, medium and long-term plan to make Rome clean.
In the first phase, 5 months from now, it is aimed at "consolidating, extending and improving" the results of the extraordinary program, "with additional resources in the budget".
In the second, among the objectives there is the strengthening of existing plants and access to funds from the NRP.
In the third, within 5 years, the aim is to "close the cycle with new plants" and to "reduce the Tari".
To those who asked him if he will shortly indicate a site for the Rome landfill, he replied affirmatively.
