A chronic problem
“I asked the Region to verify the inadequacy of the solution adopted by the Municipality of Parma to resolve the serious problem of infestation by nourish of the Colombo neighborhood". This is what the vice-president of the Legislative Assembly of Emilia-Romagna and representative of the League, Fabio Rainieri, declared to illustrate his latest question to the regional council.
The question from a year ago
“More than a year ago I had already questioned the regional council because the Municipality of Parma was not doing anything despite the sacrosanct complaints of the inhabitants of that neighbourhood”, continues Rainieri, recalling that the regional councilor for Agriculture had clarified that it was the Municipality the institution competent to intervene according to the regional plan for the control of nutria.
Fenced area
“Today the situation has not improved, on the contrary: while the complaints continue in Colombo because it does not seem that the nutria in the courtyards, garages and gardens have decreased – concludes Rainieri – the problem has been extended to the area of Via Faraday where some of these the animals were moved to a fenced area from which they escaped, also infesting the archery sports area. The reason is that the Municipality of Parma does not want to demolish them as the aforementioned regional plan allows and as it would be necessary to do".
