The councilor of this training, Gloria Martín, requires that, taking advantage of the validity of the guarantee period of the work, make the necessary corrections so that any neighbor can enjoy the monument regardless of their level of mobility
The acting Ombudsman, Francisco Fernández Marugán, has admitted to processing the complaint of IU-Greens on the inaccessibility of the Source of Gold and will proceed to initiate the relevant actions with the City of Lorca.
The councilor of this training, Gloria Martín, explained that the rehabilitation and recovery of this monument, which cost € 265,000 subsidized under the Master Plan for the recovery of the heritage of Lorca, and which had the appropriate project technical and the necessary optional address, "breach the most basic conditions of accessibility for people with reduced mobility".
These are rules of different rank and enforced observance for the City Council that has flagrantly breached.
In this regard, Martín has alluded to Royal Legislative Decree 1/2013 of 29 November approving the Consolidated Text of the General Law on the rights of persons with disabilities;
Law 5/1995, of April 7, of the Regional Assembly, of habitable conditions in residential buildings and promotion of accessibility in general;
and Order VIV / 561/2010 of February 1, which develops the technical document on basic accessibility and non-discrimination conditions for access and use of urbanized public spaces, such as the normative texts that are not complied with by the City Council of blatantly.
IU already expressed his perplexity because in a new work, the only two practicable accesses were made through stairways that have replaced the ramp that allowed the connection to different level between the avenue of Santa Clara and the restored monument.
Therefore, it requires that, taking advantage of the validity of the guarantee period of the work, make the necessary corrections so that any neighbor can enjoy the monument recovered regardless of their level of mobility.
