My wish is for this neighbourhood Downtown-la Latina to be cleaner.

I also wish outdoor bars to clean paper napkins that falla to the ground, if they have a business the street doesn’t have to be full of garbage. And, last, to find housing for the homeless.

A343
To respect the park of la Cornisa, because the centre has few green areas. To clean the street more frequently , as well as “poops”. This area has a great density of population and needs more cleaning. The neighbourhood of Salamanca is always clean. Why?
