The government team of A Pobra do Brollón is very clear about how to use the facilities of the Civil Guard barracks. The aim is to convert the building into a multifunctional center which houses a hostel, a restaurant, an indoor camping area, an exhibition hall and a handicraft center and other local products for sale to the public. The mayor, Xosé Lois Maceda, conveyed this to the Deputy Government Delegate during the visit that Isabel Rodríguez made today to the city council as part of the round of visits to the city councils of the province to introduce herself.
Xosé Lois Maceda pointed out that the city council is increasingly receiving more visits through the Winter Path and tourists who come to see the landscape and heritage resources of the municipality, a point of connection between Ribeira Sacra and the Courel mountains. This increase in visitors requires resources to serve them and the Civil Guard barracks is presented as an excellent option as had already been conveyed to the previous Deputy Government Delegate. Isabel Rodríguez said that she would be interested in how the arrangements are and would do everything possible to expedite the procedures.
Another request from the mayor had to do with the surveillance of the mountains. Xosé Lois Maceda recalled that years ago the Civil Guard on horseback monitored the mountains and carried out an important deterrent work for those who seek to harm our mountains. In this sense, he asked Isabel Rodríguez to resume the Vigilance with mounted patrols of the Civil Guard in the mountains of A Pobra do Brollón, with the aim of minimizing possible fires, mainly in the summer seasons.
