Overview
- The Mancomunidad del Morrazo approved an ordinance raising waste-collection charges for Cangas, Moaña and Bueu during a tense session limited to 68 attendees.
- Crowds outside Cangas Town Hall escalated the protest by toppling containers to block doors and attempting to force entry, prompting Policía Local and Guardia Civil escorts for officials late at night.
- The Guardia Civil is investigating post-vote violence, with reports of stones and other objects thrown that damaged the Moaña mayor’s car and injured a Bueu councillor.
- The increases amount to about 85% for households and exceed 300% for some hospitality businesses, according to local reports and business owners.
- Merchant groups and the PP decry the rise as disproportionate and plan objections and further actions, while governing parties cite Sogama bills rising from €5 million to €7.8 million a year.
