CALPE WANTS MORE
A town for living and working.
We are a team with a purpose: to make Calpe a sustainable, intelligent town, with identity and inclusion.
Over the next few years, the women and men of the Partido Popular, will give their best to convert Calpe into a town with purpose, the best place to live on the Mediterranean.
A Calpe in which the youngsters and workers can find accessible housing. A sustainable town, respecting our natural heritage, the new Botanic Garden, Oltá, our Peñon, or the Salinas that we are going to protect and preserve as our most important environmental treasure. A Calpe dedicated to our climate commitment, that promotes a driving economy with an intelligent management of our waste products. Where we can use a free Bus in our most commercial streets without needing to take a car. A safe town, most especially in our urbanisations. Where we help diversity in all its facets, being accessible and eliminating architectural obstacles in our streets, and public buildings. A Calpe full of culture and traditions. A clean town, with a lot of green areas, and solidarity with the environment. Themed and inclusive children’s parks where we can practise sport at whatever time of the year with the best installations. A Calpe that respects animals, that already form part of our lives. With a strong local commerce, and a tourism of excellence. It is the moment to make the change to a different model of tourism, with more opportunities for employment during the whole year.
Because we will be the best place to come to, if we are the best place to live in.
These are the principal proposals, however the future of a town should be designed together, where all opinions are taken into account.
