(Jamma) Just when many Municipalities in the Milanese hinterland are distancing themselves from gambling, by signing the "Manifesto of Mayors for the legality against gambling", a slot machine room opens in Bollate, open 7 days a 7. The slot room appeared halfway between the Bollate Centro station and the school complex in via Varalli.
The Municipality of Bollate has not yet adhered to the aforementioned manifesto and it would certainly be a nice gesture also because the requests of the adhering Municipalities are truly acceptable. First of all, a new national law (based on the reduction of supply and the containment of access, with adequate information and an activity of prevention and treatment). Secondly, they are asking for an ordinance power of the mayors (to define the opening hours of the gaming halls and to establish the distances from sensitive places; moreover, that the Municipalities be asked for a preventive and binding opinion for the installation of games of chance ).
The criticisms from the citizens are starting to be heard, the main concern is that the hall located near the schools could attract children outside school hours.
