The idea is to use the City Council support (upon arrival) to contribute to the recovery of these properties

Given the criticism in this morning by United Left of Navarre, Lorca City Council wants to clarify that the solidarity to which reference from that political party has failed to Lorca, since it is an agreement between the Autonomous Region and the Autonomous Community of Murcia, the amount, namely € 636,924, or is or has been so far held by the City Council.

The Mayor of Lorca, Francisco Jodar, said that "we are outraged Lorca this falsehood. Enough and are suffering because of damage from earthquakes to have to endure now be victims of such nonsense. That money has not reached Lorca. What we have proposed is that, when it comes, is employed in the recovery of the historical heritage of the municipality. We want to be intended, in particular in helping to finance the recovery of the religious sites of the two major guilds of our Easter . It is incredible that this money has been used to hold a procession, as stated from IU of Navarre. "

From City of Lorca explained that the specific proposal has been made to use this help (when it arrives) is to contribute to the recovery of two important heritage buildings Lorca: the Monumental de Santo Domingo and San Francisco.

This is monumental churches declared of cultural interest that are owned by two guilds through their own boards and foundations.

So far, these properties do not have the funding they need.

We are talking about more than 7 million euros in the case of San Francisco and around 3.2 in Santo Domingo.

Regarding the statement made by Navarre UI that this aid was used to fix Easter thrones, the City categorically denies such an extent, and these statements attributed to ignorance on the part of the formation of the reality of Lorca.

The Consistory Lorca emphasizes that the historical heritage of the city, the main source of tourism in the municipality, has suffered from the earthquake damage valued at 50 million euros and only has funding to cover 10 million.

The Mayor of Lorca, Francisco Jodar, thanked the Government of Navarra its collaboration with the people Lorca, noting that "the Navarre have proven to be an example of solidarity to be emulated by other regions."
