The Municipal Socialist Party councilor, Isabel Casalduero, began his appearance with an analysis "on the budgets of the Autonomous Region for Lorca next year in relation to the historical and cultural heritage as well as in the consolidation of our old town, the citizen participation in the reconstruction process and other problems like traffic and mobility. talked about issues that are not necessarily new or emerged from the events of 2011, but which seems logical that could be addressed taking advantage of the fact that, sometimes, misfortune, there is also the opportunity, in this case, a unique opportunity to improve our city. "

Casalduero reported that "in this regard, the Consistory Lorca has ignored all the recommendations, at the time, said the expert group of the European Council regarding the reconstruction of the city. We refer to the participation of citizens as a indispensable asset in reconstruction as well as in the implementation of the planned actions, recommendations were supported firmly, and unanimously by the full City Council of Lorca in January 2012. many were the similarities between these findings and which afforded within the "Recovery Plan for the Cultural Heritage of Lorca" written in July 2011 by the Central Government of the Socialist Party, which was who ruled at that time ".

"They proposed a complete revision of the historical sector plan and established clear concepts for improving the protection of heritage and setting a different urban landscape, closer to the city model that all citizens would like to have. Both documents proposed a comprehensive strategy to boost the city that served for ultimately, offer a quality cultural tourism as one of the main economic engines of the city, "he recalled.

Lorca The mayor said that "the first premise was that the project required from the beginning the political will rely on the general consensus, taking a holistic approach to the collective consciousness of the importance of heritage."

The Socialist councilor stressed that "not a group setting strategic reflection, nor shaping the rehabilitation agency that would control and initiate public and private actions, and neighborhood workshops whose mission would be to listen and bring the concerns neighbors to the project, or the establishment of management structures leveraging municipal services. Quite the contrary. rehabilitation We have found where urban services have become practically mere observers of the process, which is practically in the hands of the departments works and services and contracting, making the urban vision of the actions taken is void, passing patched many of the current and historical problems drag the city. All without seize the moment to treat and deal with them from the point of view of a new urbanism more inclusive, more sustainable and more profitable for our economic growth. "

Jodar Casalduero recalled that "our town goes missing. Cited documents spoke of the need to adapt several standards" Special Plan for the Protection and Rehabilitation of the historic Comprehensive Lorca, "the now famous PEPRI. And now, two and a half later, we are still in those changes. know not by whom, with the consensus of who and under what criteria. "

"Ultimately, this city will be rebuilt their heritage, but is missing a unique and historic opportunity to regain his old town. We miss allusions by the Partido Popular, historical problems such as underground wiring or setbacks from streets in the historic historical, to name a few, "he added.

Social responsibility has been to analyze the CARM budgets this year for Lorca in the areas mentioned.

He stressed that "we are an investment, importantly, by the EIB credit historical heritage rehabilitation Lorca. Interestingly an investment in economic value very similar to last year which envisaged a budget of 9,384,905 euros millionaire without specifying. thing you expect is do not delay more effectively and proceed with the rehabilitation of all those assets over the year. "

The Municipal Socialist Group member stated that "with regard to other considerations that we have detailed here, we find, again, with a game of 72000 euros for a study of traffic in the city. Heading for an amount identical to that budgeted last year and has not been executed. study would be essential when developing a sustainable urban mobility plan, which is budgeted this year for an amount of 20,000 Euros, when last year it was 250,000. mean Another failure, another patch CARM will not be back out this year. Regarding the drafting and accessibility works Lorca Castle, were in 2013 a budget of 2,245,000 Euros that for this 2014 is gone, finding only a game of 100,000 Euros for improving pedestrian access to the Castle from the districts. "

Isabel Casalduero finished saying that "we are sadly witnessing a process of patching our city, which is being invested, or will invest a lot of money that could well have been used to make a radical change in the concept of city we want, taking advantage of an opportunity undoubtedly unique investment and commitment to the future for Lorca and Lorca.
