finalmente la CARD MIC è in vendita
grande pubblicità per questa idea apparentemente ottima, peccato che la primavera sia finita e sia rimasta solo un’idea.
infatti era un idea molto buona ma poi abbiamo saputo che la card è rimasta solo un comunicato e non si è tramutata in realtà
La primavera è arrivata ma della tessera non se ne vede traccia concreta…
proviamo ad chiedere lumi al Comune chiamando lo 060606
