Loja do Cidadão investigate bad smells on site

The Citizen’s Shop is trying to detect, in conjunction with the condominium company that manages the building where it is installed, the Funchal City Council and the regional health authorities, the origin, as well as assessing possible risks to public health, of a wave of bad smells that has been noticed in recent days.

According to the statement from the Regional Finance Secretariat, “in an initial intervention, the maintenance team from the Citizen’s Shop, the condominium and a team from Funchal City Council were in the area, having cleaned the culverts surrounding the building, as this was one of the first causes identified for this occurrence. However, the problem persists, which is why contacts were also made with the regional health authorities, in order to verify possible risks to public health”.

The organization adds that in addition to this, “the services of a specialized company were also requested, in order to assess the quality of the air inside the space, as well as to identify, possibly, the origin of this outbreak of bad smell and, thus, take the necessary measures to repair this problem” that has affected the entire area.
