That gate placed by the Torre Salinas hotel to close access to the Muravera sea must be reopened within two days . The Municipality of Muravera ordered this to the company that manages the hotel (Turieco Srl) with a peremptory order. The order arrived after the sudden closure of the passage by the company which had aroused surprise and indignation among citizens. «It is an act of arrogance – underlined the mayor of Muravera Salvatore Piu – we will go all the way, until the pedestrian passage to the beach closed by the managers of the tourist facility is made usable again».
In case of non-compliance, the administration will proceed with the forced restoration of access and will charge the expenses incurred to Turieco Srl .
In short, a very tough clash between the parties is expected: «In the sixties – says the mayor – the structure was created to allow children from families without economic possibilities to enjoy a beach holiday. In more recent times, having lost its function as a marine colony, it was decided to turn it into a hotel, a high-level tourist facility reserved only for adults. The fact that it is off limits to children is perplexing, given the origins of that facility. And now bathers, from Muravera and elsewhere, are prevented from accessing the beach from the passage dedicated to them. We cannot accept this ."
