Mayor Dijksma looks back on a successful King’s Day: ‘Party for everyone’

Mayor Dijksma looks back on a successful Kings Day Party
How does the mayor actually view the commotion caused by the text carts that were in Utrecht about a ban on alcohol on the streets? Political parties in the Utrecht city council even asked questions about it. A spokesperson for the municipality previously announced that the signs were from an event last week. “I understand that there are factions in the council that want to have a discussion about this. At the same time, I think it is always wise not to drink too much in public spaces,” Dijksma responds. Last night, she said, only a handful of people were arrested for public intoxication. “They caused enormous nuisance. People can enjoy themselves, but it must be done in a way that does not hinder others.”
