It is the most ambitious and complex municipal intervention that has been developed in the neighborhood in urban matters.
The City Council takes the initiative to lead the management of the Action Unit of this area, which was paralyzed since 2008 due to lack of agreement between the owners.
The Mayor of Lorca, Fulgencio Gil, reported that the City Council has taken the decision to locate the health center of San Cristóbal in San Fernando and Beato Fray Pedro Soler streets.
This is a measure that has been possible thanks to intensive work by the municipal technical services of several councils for which the discretion required for the final obtaining of the necessary land that makes the installation of the aforementioned sanitary service possible has been necessary. in the neighborhood.
The Mayor explained that it has been a very intense process, which has required municipal officials an extra effort to specify alternatives that have the required legal and urban fit, given that the City does not have adequate land in the area reference.
Finally, and after exhausting all the possibilities, it has been possible to fit a project that we wanted to take forward within the project of a new Lorca that we are building among all Lorca.
As an example of the difficulty of this search for suitable plots for the new health center, note that the neighborhood of San Cristóbal has been studied inch by inch, making incessant walking tours of each street, analyzing any remote option that could be considered , until finding the viable solution.
We must point out that up to 20 sites have been scrutinized, but none met the minimum conditions required by the regulations for the location of this sanitary infrastructure, which had the obligation to comply with the criteria set in terms of urban conditions, surface, infrastructures, risks and accessibility.
Fulgencio Gil has said that finally our technicians have been able to find the tool that allows us to comply with a project that was the absolute priority on the part of this Mayor since I assumed the management of the City Council.
We have an excellent news, for which I want to congratulate the municipal councilors and technicians, who, despite the very unfair criticism they have received, have managed to move forward for the good of Lorca.
The First Edil explained that the obtaining of these lands will be made possible through the impulse granted to the Unit of Action 23 (UA23), which allows us to have a piece of equipment of dimensions of 1,000 m2 applying on this UA a system of public initiative.
Fulgencio Gil has indicated that the urban development of these lands was paralyzed almost 10 years by problems between the different owners.
What we do from the Town Hall is take the initiative, order the surface and offer the neighborhood of San Cristóbal a new impulse.
The Mayor has stressed that our goal has always been to install these units precisely in the location where we have managed to do, as we believe that it is the most suitable for its centralized situation, proximity to the neighbors of the area and communication routes .
The Mayor has anticipated that the action of the City not only includes the construction of the health center, but will proceed to the construction of a large green area with playground thanks to the obtaining of a plot of 1,034 m2 located between the streets Eulogio Periago, Juan Mínguez and Beato Fray Pedro Soler.
This municipal intervention is the most ambitious urban planning project that has been developed in the area, and will result in the release of a key space to improve the neighborhood both aesthetically and dotacionalmente.
Fulgencio Gil has reported that the City of Lorca has improved over the past few years over a hundred streets in the neighborhood of San Cristóbal, investments of which include the integral improvement of Calle Mayor and Ortega Melgares (715,000 euros), as well as Eulogio Periago (€ 712,000) including the latter in an injection of 7.5 million for the comprehensive arrangement of a battery of 58 streets, which makes this performance the most beneficial and highest ever made in San Cristóbal in its history.
In addition to the indicated, other municipal works have allowed the improvement of other 46 streets in the same neighborhood.
It is to be anticipated that the works of Carrer Charco have also begun in San Cristóbal, in response to the commitment that this City Council expressed to the residents, involving an investment of 358,333.70 euros.
The tasks of improving the Plaza de las Hortalizas are also being implemented, thanks to an investment of 23,400 euros by the General Directorate of Trade of the CARM.
