This decision will advance the modernization of two essential public services for the municipality, through the incorporation of new material resources, the improvement of collection systems, and the implementation of measures aimed at providing more effective attention to citizens. The contract includes the renewal of resources for cleaning streets and public spaces, as well as significant innovations in domestic waste management, with the goal of progressively adapting the service to the needs of Monòver and its hamlets.
The award follows a period where the contracting process was halted due to an appeal filed by ACTUA. The contract had been initially awarded last year, but a ruling by the Central Administrative Court of Contractual Appeals necessitated a review of the procedure. In compliance with this ruling, the City Council has now approved the new award to this company.
Key planned actions include the incorporation of newly acquired vehicles and machinery, which will update the available resources for waste collection and street cleaning. The new contract also establishes an on-call team to handle incidents seven days a week, aiming to enhance response capacity to needs arising in public spaces. Furthermore, citizen service channels will be set up to facilitate the reporting of incidents, complaints, and suggestions related to both services. This measure seeks to strengthen the relationship between citizens and the awarded company, and to foster closer monitoring of the municipality's cleaning and maintenance needs.
One of the contract's main innovations will be the progressive implementation of a door-to-door collection system in certain areas of the municipality, specifically in the old town of Monòver and the hamlets of Casas del Señor and Xinorlet. The new service will also gradually introduce the brown container for the separate collection of organic waste from households, promoting more sustainable waste management and facilitating citizen separation of different waste fractions. Additionally, the collection of bulky waste and furniture will be organized through an appointment system to ensure orderly removal and prevent accumulation in public areas.
With this award, the Monòver City Council takes a step forward in renewing two fundamental services for the quality of life of its residents. The new contract will enable long-term planning for street cleaning and waste collection, incorporating improvements in technical resources, service organization, and responsiveness to citizen demands. The Council emphasizes that this action aligns with the municipal commitment to continuously improve public spaces, advance towards more efficient and sustainable waste management, and provide a service tailored to the characteristics and needs of Monòver and its hamlets.
