A joint operation between the Departments of Industry and Commerce, Public Security and Public Works resulted in the shutdown of an illegal scrap yard in Jardim Arco-Íris. The illegal business operated on an irregularly occupied plot of land, in front of a residential condominium.
The action was prompted by complaints from residents of the region who complained about the operation of the irregular business and the accumulation of materials at the site.
During the inspection, the teams confirmed the existence of a commercial activity without the proper authorization, with a large quantity of scrap metal and other materials stored on the plot.
According to Fabricio Dourado, Secretary of Public Security, the person responsible for the establishment was notified about the irregularities and informed of the shutdown of the activity. The Department of Public Works provided trucks and equipment to assist in removing the materials accumulated in the space.
In addition to curbing the operation of clandestine establishments, the initiative seeks to ensure compliance with municipal legislation, combat irregular occupations and contribute to the safety and organization of urban spaces.
The operation in Jardim Arco-Íris is part of an inspection initiative that is expected to reach other scrap yards and irregular establishments in different regions of Cotia.
