The Executive of the Horta Municipal Council held meetings and work visits in the Parish of Capelo between September 21st and 25th, as part of the municipal initiative “A Câmara na Freguesia”.

The initiative aims to strengthen the strategy of proximity to the parishes, promoting direct contact with the populations and listening to their concerns.
Throughout the week, several interventions were carried out and planned, including street repairs, asphalt paving planning, minor repairs to the water supply network, analysis of proposals for improvements in the Comprido and Varadouro bathing areas, and assessment of the status of recycling points and waste bins.
Improvements to playgrounds, school works, interventions on rural paths, and the status of tasks delegated by the Council to the Parish were also addressed.
The Executive visited several locations in the parish, such as the School, Vulcãozinho, the ports of Comprido, Varadouro, and Porto Velho, the Varadouro Pool, various municipal and rural paths, playgrounds, and the cemetery.
The “A Câmara na Freguesia” project consists of the annual relocation of the Municipal Executive to the 13 parishes of the Horta municipality, with the aim of strengthening cooperation ties between the Municipality and the local community.
