- The legends of the literary route of Carmen Conde will be restored thanks to a Cs agreement, the information leaflet will be reissued, the visiting hours of your museum will be ordered, and the possibility of making a presentation will be studied to form the biography of this author in Cartagena

The Municipal Citizens Group in Cartagena has defended in the ordinary plenary of today three motions and five petitions.

Batteries of Costa de Cartagena

The orange formation has proposed that the Government of Cartagena declare its firm commitment to help promote and concretize the implementation of the amendment of 1 million euros to the General State Budget of 2018 for the rehabilitation and enhancement of coastal batteries from Cartagena.

The orange training has requested that the local Executive establish the necessary channels to collaborate with the administrations linked to the game, in order to develop coordinated lines of work, whose objectives are the effective development of the same.

Cs has also included in his motion that all municipal groups be informed periodically of the progress that is being made in their development.

The motion has been supported by all parties except CTSSP-Podemos, "the rejection of the populist party is not something that surprises us but it saddens us, if they brought to the Plenary a proposal to follow up on an economic game that Podemos could have in the PGE for the municipality we would celebrate it and we would support it ", lamented Manuel Padín.

"This motion is the consequence of the fear that the PSOE of Pedro Sánchez, if he continues in the next few months at the head of the Government of Spain, will hinder the execution of this amendment, it is convenient that the local government collaborate with the administrations and organizations involved in this game in an active way, seeking the advice of the Sancho Diaz Bustamante Association of Veteran Friends of the Cartagena Castles, its forts, walls, old towers and batteries (AFORCA), and other groups specialized in the military heritage of our city, that can help determine priorities for action. "

"What we want to understand is that the million euros that we have achieved is not only a matter of party, but of municipal and regional interest, and that is why the City Council must defend that game with all the instruments at its disposal" , Padín has indicated.

Tower of Santa Elena

Citizens has managed to get the City Council to request the demarcation of Costas the cession of the Tower of Santa Elena to make visitable and give its management to cultural and neighborhood groups in the area.

The Cs spokesman recalled that in July 2016 requested in plenary the same thing, to carry out the necessary procedures to obtain the total or partial transfer of the Santa Elena Tower with the aim of incorporating that asset into the tourist offer of the Cartagena municipality in the Isla Plana-La Azohía area, and transfer its management to third parties.

The motion was rejected with the votes against Movimiento Ciudadano and PSOE, and with the abstentions of PP and Podemos.

At that time, the government justified its rejection that there were two problems: its elevated location, about 70 meters above the cliff at the tip of La Azohía, which does not allow mass tourism because of the dangerous environment, and the rise to tower by a spiral metal staircase in poor condition.

Orange spokesman reported today that his group has made various arrangements through which he has learned that Demarcation of Coasts would be willing to grant the cession to the City Council and undertake the necessary work to establish the security measures required to make it visitable the Tower of Santa Elena, placing methacrylate parapets on the parapet of the terrace and arranging the axis of the spiral staircase, "according to technicians of the Demarcation of Coasts these measures are perfectly affordable and would entail a minimal visual impact", added Manuel Padín who understands that "the change of opinion of the Plenary has been produced by this information and we celebrate expanding and improving our tourist offer".

Literary route of Carmen Conde

The milestones of the literary route of Carmen Conde will be restored thanks to the agreement that has promoted the orange formation in today's Plenary.

Currently, these legends are very deteriorated.

Citizens has also managed to modify the Tourism website in a way that improves the accessibility to find itineraries or literary routes, whose file is only within the page of the Carmen Conde-Antonio Oliver Board, and reissue the information leaflet of this route that begins in the Artillery Park to be delivered to the different tourist offices.

In addition, the orange training has asked to analyze the possible formulas to regulate the opening hours of the Museum Carmen Conde-Antonio Oliver.

On the other hand, the agreement of Citizens, defended by the councilman Ana Rama, forces the Government to carry out in the municipality a formal presentation of the biography of Carmen Conde, something that to date has not been done by the City Council, but in Madrid or in Melilla.
