Adoration Peñas, councilor of IU-Greens of Lorca has described as unwise the attitude of the mayor and the councilor of urban planning in regard to maintenance, rehabilitation and recovery of the historic center.
Despite the good intentions that remain on paper, reality shows again and again that the recovery of the historic center has not been or is not a priority for this government team, as it was not for the previous ones.
Neither Jódar nor Gil will ever have a historic helmet in conditions, because they have never had it as a priority.
Peñas regrets that, while making millionaire investments in banal issues such as the purchase of the bullring for a more than questionable purpose, however, the abandonment of the historic center continues, with 30 houses still in the historic site waiting to be rebuilt , getting worse and worse with the passage of time.
The mayor, has said that the last test has been what happened this weekend after a detachment of the cornice of the former convent of the Poor Clares Lope Gisbert, falling stones, plaster and other fragments to the public road without, Fortunately, personal injuries will be recorded.
From IU-Greens denounce once again that the city council does not do anything to avoid these situations that can cause some misfortune that must be regretted later.
Peñas warns that you can not rely on good fortune, while neglect of functions by the political leaders who are responsible for preventing these landslides occur due to lack of action, remembering that the government team fails to comply and again the Law of Spanish Historical Heritage and the Law of Cultural Heritage of the Region of Murcia, which establish the requirement for owners to keep their cataloged properties in optimum condition or, otherwise, to be expropriated.
The mayor insists that from her group do not want to continue doing what has been done so far: rehabilitate properties of a few with everyone's money, without there being public return and without evaluating whether the rehabilitation meets the requirements that derive from the degree of protection of the buildings.
Although from the council of urbanism presume to examine frequently the properties susceptible to rehabilitate, the left councilor warns that it is not enough to examine and what you have to do is fix them at once.
The councilor for town planning recognizes that the checks correspond to the owners, although the municipality does subsidiary and in full municipal have not voted in favor when we have insisted that oblige owners to keep their properties in condition, such and how they enact the laws cited above.
Just a few weeks ago there were also landslides in a manor house on Calle Alfonso X El Sabio, where there are several buildings in these circumstances, so we are not talking about isolated cases, so from IU-Green we demand the mayor to comply and enforce the law once and for all to avoid irreparable damage, especially when adverse weather events occur.
