Yesterday, the Palma city council declared that it will now take steps to solve the problem of weekly street parties being hosted at the Paseo Maritimo.

Last week, the local council in Alcudia set up stringent measures and penalities for those caught violating a set of new antisocial conduct laws. But in Palma, the council has decided to launch a special awareness programme. A special unit will be allotted the task of talking to young party goers and try to explains them the problems they cause by partying into early hours and leaving heaps of waste behind.

This campaign will start this weekend and go on for the next 7 weeks. A special van will be on patrol on Friday and Saturday nights informing young revelers about the disturbance and commotion they cause and the problems involved in clearing up the waste to encourage them to stop gathering at the seafront in the weekends.
