The article reports that the PS/Açores (Socialist Party of the Azores) has called for urgent government action to prevent flooding in the Arrifes parish of Ponta Delgada. Deputress Sandra Costa Dias, a former local council president, presented a resolution requesting the immediate implementation of a project to build six new retention basins—four managed by the regional government and two by the municipality—to address longstanding and worsening flood issues affecting streets, homes, businesses, and infrastructure. The proposal demands a detailed timeline within 60 days and the creation of a coordination group involving regional authorities to ensure transparency and effective execution. The initiative aims to protect residents and property from recurrent flooding, emphasizing the need for prompt and structured intervention.
