The Socialists propose that the old police station be converted into a multipurpose building, first of all, for the recovery of the DNI and passport issuance office, since its withdrawal was a "blunder" for the commercial fabric of the area.
As a measure of economic savings, they propose that the new building serve to create public spaces to house those municipal offices and headquarters of groups for which the Lorca City Council pays monthly rents to private owners
The Spokesman of the PSOE, Diego José Mateos has again proposed that the building of the old police station, located in San Vicente, recover the office of issuance of identity card and passport.
They assure that the withdrawal of this service has been a "blunder" for the historic center as it supposed a "source of daily public" that served to boost the commercial and economic activity of the area.
In addition, raises this "vital" proposal to stop the closure of businesses that has long affected the downtown area due to the necessary reactivation of this environment.
Mateos assures that the proposal for the recovery of the office of issuance of the DNI and Passport in the old police station must be accompanied by an increase in the staffing of the National Police, after consulting the Ministry of the Interior.
The Spokesman assures that this initiative is viable, because in municipalities like the one of Murcia the expedition of these documents is made in other dependencies outside the Police station.
Mateos demands that, as soon as possible, the state of conservation of the building be evaluated and the best possible use be studied.
Ensures that the recovery of this property, located in a "privileged" area should serve to promote the economic and social recovery of the city center. "The socialist leader hopes that after the disastrous management that made the Popular Party for the" acquisition "of this building, is endowed with a" public "use with a view to the strategic recovery of the commercial and economic sector of the area.
Within the framework of this necessary study, Mateos proposes that the building also become a multipurpose building that offers public spaces of new creation, first of all, so that the Lorca City Council can save the cost of rent payments of those offices or headquarters of groups for which the consistory pays monthly for the lease of private spaces.
In addition, it would also serve to offer spaces to those groups that currently do not have their own space due to the deficit of available municipal seats.
His recovery will also serve to make profitable the parquin de San Vicente, deficit according to the accounts of Limusa.
Mateos assures that the recovery of this property should be the propitious scenario to promote the necessary reactivation of the historic center.
Ensures that the historic center can not be at the mercy only of "good intentions" of the PP but requires that specific strategic plan, proposed by the PSOE to promote once the recovery of the historical and monumental city.
From the PSOE remember that it is a proposal that already transferred to the government team of the Popular Party when the transfer of the police station to their new units in Sutullena.
At that time, the socialists echoed the demands of the Federation of Neighborhood Associations and also the Chamber of Commerce itself, who opposed the transfer.
