Sant Roc, Oliva

Along with the Church of Santa Maria the church of Sant Roc is one of the most beautiful and emblematic of Oliva BUT I wish it was renamed as Sant Rock.
When I run for mayor of Oliva (2023) it will be one of my proposals. Other proposals will be:

- Change the name of Oliva as Oliba, to improve the positioning in Google (the olive is confused with the municipality. We don't want that).
- Independence of Oliva beach (historical claim) and legalization of Bob Marley.
- Return La Marjal to its natural state with the release of hippos and crocodiles.
- Ban selfies in public spaces.
- Raise the mayor's salary to €9,500 per month (this would not be in the program and would only be applied if I were to become mayor).
