THE MAYOR Pazzaglini puts everyone in line at the table and asks restaurants to open in winter.
New regulation on municipal closing rounds are reading, but also puts on the table an advertising campain paid by the municipality, without any burden on the restaurants.
The annual catering to Catholic in the city almost forty, but for long periods as the winter season upon us during the week is practically impossible or nearly so, unfortunately, find an open restaurant in town.
"There are entire quarter as the port or the center for example, explains the first citizen Pietro Pazzaglini - where it is difficult to find a restaurant open at noon in the middle of the week but it should not be so.
The restaurant is also a service for the city - the mayor continues -. I understand the needs of all, but there are also the needs of a city that lives on tourism. It is time to look everyone in the eyes and change strategy. On closing rounds we must sit at a table together and establish a timetalbe that can guarantee the presence of at least some daily restaurant opened in the city. "
OTHERWISE happens as is already happening: a desert that discourages visitors passing through.
Managers, agents of commerce, businessmen or tourists (this can happen, for quacuno the sea in winter always has its charm), managers, etc.. If they go to lunch in nearby Gabicce or go to discover the kitchen of the hinterland.
And the Municipality in order to discourage this into hibernation, is ready to invest the local advertising themselves, "will make brochures and advertising for those who will show their commitment to opening even winter-confirmation Pazzaglini-we will create packages and initiatives to revive the city at the expense ours, but especially counter-take with us in the event and stands in those restaurateurs who believe in the city.
