Hi Press-Inezgane

In an event that angered many drivers in the town of Inezgane, they discovered that the town’s municipal authorities were digging trenches on the side of the road near the Liberty Market, in a move that some have seen as an attempt to force drivers to pay high fees to park their cars in private garages. Motorists headed to an empty lot to park their cars, escaping the new price imposed by the garage after the approval of the municipality, estimated at 4 dirhams for each hour of parking, a price considered to be the highest in the region compared to other cities.

The municipality of Inezgane had submitted the booklet on the pricing of sanctuaries for discussion during previous sessions, several councilors of the municipal council having opposed it. These advisors called for urgent intervention from the Inezgane prefecture to remedy this situation, considering that this price is the highest in the region. However, neither the collective council nor the Inezgane workers responded to these demands, which allowed the mechanic to win the case and impose its conditions, including digging trenches to trap cars that refused to park in your garage and pay high fees.

An activist posted a video on Facebook showing the trenches dug in the empty square, asking what the purpose was. Is this an attempt to force drivers to pay the new rates, or did the situation happen by chance and the municipality dug ditches to plant trees?

Faced with this chaos, the situation of the garages in Inezgane remains questionable, especially since other cities in the region, such as Agadir, have decided that parking spaces will be free or at low prices (only two dirhams day and night ). Will Inezgane workers remain silent in the face of the chaos reigning in the management of slaughterhouses?
