The association asserts that the City Council has handed the park over to private promoters "without prior notice," preventing residents from enjoying one of the few green spaces in the neighborhood. <a href="https://en.arabalears.cat/society/controversy-over-the-feixina-christmas-market-residents-report-damage-to-tree-in-the-park_1_5583431.html" target="_blank">In response to the employers' associations in the trade sector</a>The residents ask: "What does the Feixina market contribute to local commerce?" They explain that, despite having requested the administrative file, as well as economic, environmental, and safety reports, they have still not received a response from the city. The residents state that they have had to learn the details of the event "as it was being organized" and that the lack of transparency has been evident. </p>]]></description>
