Could you address the issue of “Egyptian darkness” in Nowogrodziec? For several days, the city has simply been dark—with not the slightest source of light—on the main Sienkiewicza Street: from the intersection with Krótka and Ogrodowa streets, along the municipal cemetery and farther toward Milików. The same is true along the entire length of Asnyka Street, both alongside the garages and the Soviet cemetery, and near the GOPS and the health centre.
And added:
It is simply as dark as it was in ancient Egypt, yet we are in the 21st century. This situation has been continuing for several days. I saw people bumping into one another, particularly older people. In addition, since yesterday [od niedzieli 3 grudnia – przyp. istotne.pl] there has been dense fog. This is not conducive to residents’ safety and could also provide a good opportunity for offences and crimes.
Reader: “Perhaps the city authorities will wish to comment and explain the situation. The lack of lighting has continued for several days, and no one is taking any interest in it... Such a situation would not occur in Bolesławiec, but in Nowogrodziec it seems there is no local community interested in how its city functions.”
We asked the Municipal Office in Nowogrodziec about the matter. We will publish its response as soon as we receive it.
