“We are calmer knowing that the performance is focused on the Gola del Perellonet, and this is a necessary and natural performance.” This is how Enrique Herranz, spokesman for the El Perellonet Neighborhood Association, expressed his satisfaction after the meeting held this Tuesday morning with the sub-delegation of the Government in Valencia and with Coastal technicians on the drainage of sand from the beach of this district de València that will be undertaken in the coming days. The neighbors had protested publicly for not knowing the terms of this procedure, worried about the state in which their beach would be after it.

In the meeting, in which the sub-delegate of the Government in Valencia, Raquel Ibáñez; the village mayor of Perellonet, José Zorrilla, and members of the Neighborhood Association have detailed the actions that are going to be undertaken in the coming days in the Gola del Perellonet, actions that will “drain the Gola, which will guarantee the drainage of the Albufera”.

After the meeting, the sub-delegate has expressed “full harmony” among all those attending the meeting who agree on the need to carry out the drainage of the Gola through a performance that “will begin shortly and will last between four and ten days because it is a minor emergency work and it only affects La Gola and not the beach”. Likewise, Ibáñez has insisted that these dates, after Easter, have been chosen to cause “the least possible impact on the public.”

For his part, the spokesman for Neighbors, Enrique Herranz, has expressed his satisfaction at “receiving first-hand information about the actions that are going to be carried out.” In this sense, he has pointed out that “we are calmer knowing that the action is focused on the Gola del Perellonet, and this is a necessary and natural action.”

After the meeting held in Valencia, both the Subdelegation and the neighbors have agreed to maintain “fluid and constant contact and information” to address all the issues that affect them.
