In this city of 28,000 there is only one fire hydrant. The project consists in the installation of four fire hydrants at strategic points throughout the city connected to water mains where a permanent flow of water at high pressure can be guaranteed. This project is a follow up to a donation in 2002 of a fire truck by the Rotary Club of Naples-Pelican Bay (Florida, USA) and our club.
