As they did in the city last January, the Socialists Lorca again reach out to the government team to work together and get investments are directed to economic, urban, social and commercial recovery needed lorquino historical district

PSOE spokesman in the city of Lorca, Diego José Mateos regretted the news that appeared yesterday in the Official Gazette by the Ministry of Finance and Public Administration rejected the initiative by the city of Lorca and supported by all local groups, called "Lorca Strategy 2020" and that totaled almost EUR 14 million, intended entirely to the full recovery of our "battered and abandoned" old town.

Mateos regrets this bad news, since the request of Lorca has been described as "not selected" because it has not obtained enough points when entering the distribution of 27,350,000 euros corresponding to the province of Murcia, Although they have remained undivided between the municipalities 3.999.307,20 €, and therefore have been awarded a total of 23.350.692,80 €.

The PSOE and supported in January at the Plenum of the Municipal Corporation, this initiative by the Department of Employment and Work.

That is why so Mateos rate this rejection as "a real blow to the recovery of the old town, much needed investment for recovery from the economic, urban, social and business sense".

In this sense, the social responsibility returns to his offer and his political formation "to lend a hand in this project," and ask the Mrs. Councillor for Employment and Works, Mrs Eulalia Ibarra, "put all the meat on the grill, you try to redirect this obvious failure means losing 14 million euros, and claiming to exhaust all legal possibilities, starting with representations to this resolution, whose term ends next October 18, and without involves giving up a second call announced by the central government. Mateos insists that "as always, the city of Lorca and his government team, you can find the PSOEen that way, at his side for the sake of Lorca".

As already publicly said the president of CECLOR in late August, much fear in the PSOEque in the government team of PP there is no plan "B" to tackle a strategy guarantees for achieving funding in this regard, and that this failure, along with the abandonment of the old town, the delay in PEPRI and lack of initiative shown by the PP, suppose "delve further into the sorry state of our city center."

Finally, Mateos requires the City of Lorca which is "the catalyst of all the energies" and has the ability to work, not only political parties and the PSOE are willing to contribute their bit, but count of real and effectively with civil society Lorca renowned professionals on issues of heritage, land, tourism and, ultimately, to lead a common, participatory and seamless front to achieve CECLOR, Chamber of Commerce, associations, the effective recovery of our historic center as an engine of the economy of our town.
