"There are citizens who reproach me for thinking of the town as if it were a big city," explains the mayor of Calafell, Ramon Ferré, with displeasure. And he justifies his claim: "The truth is that we've grown a lot in a short time, and in some cases, we still have a village mentality." The mayor must face these reproaches, for example, when he tries to explain to citizens that they have to pay to park in the beach area, a part of the city that is completely overcrowded and where without a blue zone it would be impossible to find a place to leave your car because there would be no turnover. The unpopular measure cannot be reversed: "But we've already surpassed Salou!" says Ferré.
