When the Benches Become a Bar: Residents Sound the Alarm on the Paseo Marítimo

Answer

Who is responsible for policing the Paseo Marítimo in Palma?

Responsibility is complicated because parts of the waterfront belong to the port authority and other parts to the municipality. That can create gaps in enforcement when an issue falls between agencies or when each side says it is not their area. Residents want better coordination between port police, city police and the local administration.
