Due Giugno Neighborhood Residents’ Committee Addresses Youth Noise and Livability

Officially, the Residents’ Committee in the Due Giugno neighborhood will be established with the assembly convened by president Cristian Trinchieri on the evening of October 5. However, the first position on the topic of livability has already been presented to the mayor’s office.

This is a letter drawing attention to the municipal council on the phenomenon of groups of young people migrating, numerous and noisy, during Saturday nights, turning what should be hours of rightful rest into nightmares.

The committee does not call for repressive measures: it merely reports what it perceives as a social issue that should be addressed with the means available to a council attentive to youth issues, which has a dedicated delegation and should be able to deploy based on their responsibilities.

Membership and objectives of the Committee

The committee has over a hundred members, precisely 116, including supporting members, non-residents connected to the neighborhood’s fate who cannot hold elected positions, and regular members. The latter are those who spend days and nights in the strip of the city born since the 1970s, around the first Itea “cottages”.

Members, even though registration is never permanently closed and everyone can participate equally, will meet at the Auditorium delle Sighele on the evening of Friday, October 5, to approve a statute that defines the association’s aims.

The issues discussed concern the general problems of neighborhood livability but always prioritize opportunities for gathering.

The committee aims to address not only small stories of broken sidewalks or missing benches but also to identify a package of topics that can be developed over time and through dialogue to build a civic identity.

This identity has often been relegated over the years to a secondary or tertiary priority, overshadowed by the primary need to secure housing.
