37 families are facing the imminent stoppage of the reconstruction of their homes after the earthquakes because the Regional Administration has not yet made payment of the aid committed, since it has only contributed 50% to the majority of neighbors and 75 % Only to some of them
The councilor of the PSOE in the City of Lorca, Antonio Navarro has again denounced "for the umpteenth time" the abandonment that, on this occasion, continue to suffer up to 37 families, owners of the buildings Del Vas and Guadalentín who are facing the imminent stoppage Of the reconstruction works of their houses because the regional government continues without paying the committed and necessary aid to ensure the rebuilding.
Specifically, as the socialist councilor has denounced, to date and after almost six years since these families lost everything after the earthquakes of 2011, the Regional Administration has barely paid 50% of the aid to the majority of The neighbors, and 75% only to some of them.
According to Antonio Navarro, this problem, due to the lack of public aid necessary for the reconstruction of these houses, adds to the difficulty added by the situation of three houses, owned by banks, which have also neglected their obligations and Must at present up to 150,000 euros to the process of rebuilding.
But this problem does not remain there.
To make matters worse, according to the Edil socialist, the multinational energy company Iberdrola has warned these neighbors that their new homes "will not be able to connect to the same electrical transformer to which their buildings were linked before the earthquakes."
Therefore, a new added problem since "the company forces them to have their own transformers after the reconstruction", as it seems, says "this great multinational is only dedicated to collect The receipts ".
Because of all this, and in view of this situation so worrying and all this series of incomprehensible circumstances that have these families above, remember, they lost everything after the earthquakes, regrets that "the City of Lorca, and specifically his team of Government of the PP, follow in your line and look again ".
From the Municipal Socialist Group understand that the City of Lorca "has much to say and much work to do" to defend these neighbors and facilitate their return home after six years of "long waits."
For this reason, Antonio Navarro again demands the City of Lorca to immediately demand the Autonomous Community "to make effective payments of the aid that has recognized and committed with these neighbors, as well as with the rest of Lorca who are in the same situation".
On the other hand, and through the legal services of the City of Lorca, they request that the payment of the banking entities that own the three homes mentioned above be requested, and if they do not respond within a short time, they are made available to The neighbors said legal services, to initiate legal actions against these entities.
And finally, in relation to the added problem of the electric transformer, they demand that it be the City of Lorca who meets with the management of Iberdrola and "look for a just solution" so that these families do not have to make such a high disbursement, that without Doubt would imply "a real economic loss unattainable for these owners."
