Calpe yesterday celebrated October, 9, the day of the Comunidad Valenciana, with the institutional awarding of the "Jaume Pastor i Fluixà" prize and the city's medals of honour, which each year honour the work of people or institutions that have made a significant contribution to the improvement of the city. The act began with a video in honour of the historian, professor and journalist Pastor i Fluixà, who dedicated his short life to the memory of Calpe and Les Marines.
The municipal government will include within the agenda of the ordinary plenary session scheduled for next October 14, the sanction to the company awarded the cleaning service of the beaches and coves of Calpe for breach of contract.
