The Socialist Deputy Speaker has also requested that the deadlines for submitting pleadings and documentation be expanded, as the letters have arrived in August and many neighbors have not been able to collect them yet, while urging the City Council to comply with the agreement adopted in the Past full July in this regard.
The PSOE has verified that massive remittances of letters continue to arrive demanding the total or partial repayment of the aid granted by the Autonomous Community of the Region of Murcia for the repair of the damages in their houses after the earthquakes of 2011, and that these have been Sent in the month of August, which means that a large number of Lorca are not at home and therefore have not yet been able to collect the notifications, with the consequent risk that the deadlines to plead or present Claims and resources are exhausted.
In addition, Isidro Abellán states that citizens who have been able to receive their notification go to the Department of Earthquake Recovery to advise and are with long queues and waiting times, reaching to be even hours, due to the few human resources Available to be taken care of.
For the socialist councilor this is "a lack of total foresight on the part of the municipal government team," which is aware of the remittances of hundreds of letters demanding the return of the total, in some cases, or part of the income derived from the Subsidies granted and that, therefore, they should be aware that a considerable increase of the consultations and procedures to be carried out would take place, reason why from the PSOE they have demanded that it is proceeded to allocate more personnel and means of special form and punctual to this one Service, so that the affected can be attended in a reasonable time, taking into account that this personnel can be derived from other municipal services less saturated so as not to increase costs.
Abellán has also requested that the City Council requires the Autonomous Community to extend of its own motion the deadlines for the presentation of these claims or allegations and again requests that it differentiate in the treatment of all those who did invest the money granted in the repair of the Housing, which are the majority of Lorca and Lorca, of those who did not.
The Socialist mayor recalls that from the City of Lorca, and at the initiative of all municipal groups, a motion was issued to resolve this problem and that the agreement of this motion reflected to urge the CARM that through new visits and Technical reports it will be established that the investment in the repair of the housing was actually made and that this report serves as a justification for paralyzing and archiving the return file.
To conclude, Abellán insists that this is the best "punctual" solution to the problem, which has the backing of all municipal groups and only needs the political will of the regional and local government to be effective and give solution to this Crossroads in which hundreds of Lorca are involved.
