Francisco Jodar continue implementing Lorca participation in decision-making, as is being done with the meetings in which the neighbors decide how they want their streets and neighborhoods are improved.

The Mayor of Lorca, Francisco Jodar, has ratified its commitment to "personal and political" by encouraging the participation of citizens in public life, a commitment that also extends to the establishment of the necessary measures to establish a genuine town hall with "glass walls", fully transparent and accessible.

Francisco Jodar has anticipated, in this regard, that the local government is already working on the implementation of the model of participatory budgeting, for example, has already been launched at the regional level by the Autonomous Government, we are talking about a line political action that promotes inclusion of all citizens to decision-making and that is an added impetus to implement the decision of citizens in the day-to-day municipality.

The mayor explained that this commitment to give greater voice and decision making Lorca has already resulted in the setting up of a council exclusively for this purpose, the Citizen Participation, which has been responsible for promoting, writing and develop different rules and tips that structure this new decentralization to the citizen.

In fact already it approved the Regulations of the Social Council of the City, an entity that has its respective committees and organization.

We are talking about a work which has received the opinion and contributions of all groups involved, since it is a new overall design of relationships between people and administration.

Francisco Jodar has identified as most representative example the fact that the ambitious urban renovation being carried to term progressively in all the streets, squares and neighborhoods of the city, and the works are expected to rush into districts for improvement are already being consulted and agreed with the citizens themselves.

We must be very clear that the neighbors who decide how they want the area in which they live, so we asked their opinions and incorporate their contributions in implementing the improvements is improved.

The mayor also said that the Consistory is already monitoring how to move in a flexible and efficient model to the case of Lorca Participative Budget, taking into account the idiosyncrasies of our municipality and its peculiarities.

This initiative could indeed launch next year, with due guarantees.
