Consumption of alcohol on public roads
Citizens have raised several questions to know what measures the City of Cartagena is taking to avoid the sale of alcohol to minors, and to control their consumption.
In addition, Citizens have asked about the actions that the government plans to raise awareness or to sensitize consumers of alcohol in public streets so that the streets of Cartagena do not sometimes look like a 'landfill'.
The Councilor for Citizen Security, Francisco Aznar, has been unable to name a single action to raise awareness of the irresponsible consumption of alcohol among young people, and has limited itself to reviewing the police work being done, which citizens consider impeccable.
Citizens' questions are motivated by the unproductive work that the Pact at Night has been doing until now, and by the lack of solutions to the problems of uncontrolled night-time leisure.
Work intrusion among tour guides

The mayor of Ciudadanos in Cartagena, Ana Rama, said that "the official tourism guides working in our municipality are the ambassadors of Cartagena, its heritage, its history, are an essential link in the chain of our tourist service, But every day that we allow the intruding guides to carry out this work we demean and depreciate a little more this profession "
Allocated municipal services
The Municipal Group of Citizens has presented several questions related to the situation of the procedure of contracting the service of tourist guides, access control and custody of archaeological sites and cultural facilities, as well as the contract of the archaeological maintenance service and preventive restoration of Archaeological sites of Cartagena.
Both contracts are not in force and currently operate in a state of legality.
The orange training also wanted to know the type of contract that you intend to use to regulate these services and the monthly cost of your service.
Councilor for Finance, Isabel García, has reported that both services will cost about 8,000 euros per month, and that both contracts will be put out to tender shortly through an open procedure.
Councilwoman Ana Rama said that "with this government, we are not accustomed to the lack of foresight before a multitude of issues, and to the inability to anticipate the completion of public contracts to avoid situations of aloofness. Citizens are very interested in reversing this indifference, this Municipal Group will continue to work to formalize administrative contracting, to end these irregular situations and to remove the uncertainty that workers suffer "has defended Rama.
