Last Sunday September 19th, AVV and hundreds of neighbors (between 300 and 400) protested against the noise the third runway will produce once it is operational. The demonstration took place at the municipal facilities where the ‘Festa de la Rosa’ (a gathering of the Socialist supporters) was being celebrated.

The objective was to present our claims to the president of the ‘Generalitat’. At the end our objective was accomplished and throughout the duration of the demonstration no incidents were produced. From AVV Gavà Mar we would like to thank all of those who were present.

Around 30 residents of Gavà Mar attended the plenary session of the City Council of Gavà wearing t-shirts with the words "Gavà Mar for a FRIENDLY AIRPORT". This is how we made our voices heard to the heart of Gavà.

Some political parties represented in the City Council of Gavà ('EUiA', 'ERC' and 'CiU') begin echoing the AVV Gavà Mar's proposal, while asking the City Council to do the same:

-Support for the AVV Gavà Mar's proposal (April 29th, 2004)

- Support for the AVV Gavà Mar's proposal (April 29th, 2004)

The proposal of AVV Gavà Mar was debated during the plenary session and about 20 residents of Gava Mar were caused deep indignation when the councilwoman of the Environment, Bruguers Jardí (PSC), who is also the representative of the City Councill of Gavà to the CSAAB (Supervisory Commission), defended the operation of the airport with INDEPENDENT RUNWAYS and affirmed that 65dB is the noise level that an electric toothbrush make, What a real shame!

This was our second mobilization and it won’t be our last. We will be at the next City Council plenary session. We will keep you informed of the date and time.
