00:27In the case of Odalis Candelier, they had to go in person and use heavy equipment to dismantle what was functioning as
00:36a laundry here in San Francisco de Macorís.
00:38Well, as you can see, this is a collaborative operation between the City Council, the Environment Department, Odalis Candelier, and SEMPA.
00:50We are here today removing a platform, a concrete slab that was built to make a car wash belonging to a
00:59workshop.
00:59We had notified them on several occasions, the Ministry of the Environment had also notified them, as had the owner of the workshop.
01:08It had not complied, so today we are also removing the platform, just as we removed the roof that was
01:16had built.
01:17All this drainage, a product of the work done today, is collapsed and clogged, and those sewers will have to be replaced.
01:25so that the rainwater can take on its sound.
01:28Is all of this public space?
01:30This is municipal space, public space, part of the road, part of the sidewalk, part of the drainage ditch that directs
01:38rainwater.
01:39We are here today, firstly as citizens, who care about our province, and as president of the Te Quiero Foundation

01:48which we had seen and had discussed with Amadi on several occasions.
01:55So today we decided to come here to repair the damage, but as you can see, the street is already...
02:01Vehicles couldn't even pass through here because someone had taken up half the road to make a
02:08car wash.
02:09We have to respect public spaces, we have to take care of public spaces, they belong to everyone, not just one person.
02:15person.
02:16Sometimes we are criticized for being persecuted, but it's not persecution. We stand with society and we will continue to do so.
02:22Supporting together with Amadi and all institutions that wish to join.
02:28Well, there we were able to hear from both Candelier and the Amadí case, both of whom are incumbents of what is
