The Public Security Police of Portimão are celebrating the installation of air conditioning in the city police station, a € 223,000 investment by the Municipality of Portimão.
In a press release, the Municipality states that when signing the protocol, the District Commander of the PSP, superintendent Dário Prates, thanked “another stage of collaboration that the municipality has been providing to the corporation, from which some positive results have emerged from both the tactical and operational level.”
“Allowing good conditions for security forces contributes to improving the performance of our functions, more effectively meeting citizens’ expectations”, stated Dário Prates.
For the mayor of Portimão, Isilda Gomes, this support “is, more than a simple gesture of goodwill, a moral obligation and an investment in the economy, as security constitutes a fundamental good anywhere in the world, without which there is no life, especially in a tourist town like ours.”
According to the mayor, “whenever we asked for intervention, whenever a situation was reported, there was a prompt response from the PSP, which gives comfort to traders, tourists and our fellow citizens, and the value of this stance is incalculable.”
“The security forces will be able to count on us and we will be open to respond positively to any request, aiming to meet your needs, which are also ours”, assured Isilda Gomes, before adding that, in addition to this support, the municipality has commissioned a vehicle, worth €40,000, destined for the PSP of Portimão.
