JPP denounces abandonment of Jardim de São Francisco in Câmara de Lobos and calls for revitalization

The Juntos pelo Povo (JPP) party has denounced the state of abandonment of Jardim de São Francisco, a historic space in the center of Câmara de Lobos, calling it an example of mismanagement by the PSD administration.

According to Nuno Freitas, a member of the Câmara de Lobos Parish Assembly for JPP, the area, inaugurated in 2006, includes a disused playground and a former restaurant, and is currently in "complete abandonment." JPP calls for urgent rehabilitation, suggesting the transformation of the site into a green leisure area with renewed parking, a new playground, and the creation of a new central hub connecting the seafront to the promenade and the salt pans.
