Mayor estimates spending of R$ 21.1 million on cleaning up after storm in Ribeirão Preto Ribeirão Preto (SP) will have to spend at least R$ 21.1 million just on cutting trees and cleaning streets due to the storm with winds of more than 120 km/h that devastated municipalities in the interior of São Paulo at the end of last week. The value is an estimate contained in a letter sent to the federal government to recognize the city's state of emergency. "These are damages that we already forecast the expenses that are being made and that are to come just in the area of ??tree extraction. Understand how much this costs. Leaving the city clean, orderly, will cost a very large portion of the municipal budget, which we do not have the budget for, so we are already doing the work, asking for an emergency transfer of investments", said Mayor Ricardo Silva (PSD).
