Casalduero said the PSOE is not going to legitimize their presence what they consider "an attack on municipal property and against a jewel of Baroque civil architecture of the Region of Murcia, as is the House of Columns"
Socialist Councillor Isabel Casalduero has announced that his party will not participate in the jury to award the project to rehabilitate the Palacio Guevara to be held today, whose specification imposed by the City involve "changing the location of some of the current areas of the palace and the disappearance of others. "
Casalduero said the PSOE is not going to legitimize their presence what they consider "an attack on municipal property and against a jewel of Baroque civil architecture of the Region of Murcia, as is the House of Columns."
This building was declared a Cultural (BIC) that the government team tries to join the current headquarters of the Regional Centre of Crafts, "two buildings that have nothing to do with each other."
Casalduero expressed concern about the mechanism that will connect both buildings.
The Socialist Party also opposes the claim of the PP government team to remove the Palace Pharmacy to install a café-restaurant "totally unnecessary and counterproductive from the point of view of heritage," said Isabel Casalduero.
In this context, the PSOE is committed to a comprehensive refurbishment of the Palace that it retains its essence as a house museum.
The PSOE Councillor recalled that in 2008, the mayor of PP, Jódar Francisco, announced a Master Plan that, funded by the Autonomous Community, would involve the restoration of 789 goods inside the Palace "and has not been heard nothing. "
In 2008, Jódar also announced the restoration of the palace "which was designed only to lack of funding."
Funding that "have not bothered to ask for 1% under the Ministry Cultural Development," recalled Casalduero.
