Today, the councilor of the MC Cartagena municipal group, Ricardo Segado, has informed of the will of Cartagena to urge the local government, in the course of the next plenary session, to advance in the negotiations initiated during the Mayor's Office of MC to promote collaboration between administrations that allows the recovery of the Fajardo battery for tourism or cultural purposes.
Regarding the battery, Segado has emphasized the fact that eighteen years have elapsed for the General Directorate of Cultural Assets to have demanded that the Ministry of Defense comply with its obligation to guarantee security around the military complex, channeling "a judgment of the Superior Court of Justice dated in the year 2000".
An action coinciding with "the letter sent by MC to the General Directorate reminding him of this matter, after the silence received by entities such as DAPHNE, which have insistently demanded compliance with the ruling." Unfortunately, the administrative silence usually coincides with the interest political in this Region. "
With this, has alluded to the confluence of the initiative of MC and the change of Government in Madrid, "what has pushed to act to the Autonomous Community."
It has also been favored that "no Cartagena occupies the chair of the Directorate General."
Going into the content of the motion, the Cartagena councilor recalled that "José López, during his mayoralty, undertook discussions with the Ministry of Defense in order to articulate a collaboration between administrations that would enable, once recovered, the maintenance and conservation of the property ".
Immediately afterwards, he lamented "the paralysis of the talks after Lopez left the City Hall and the arrival of the Socialist Government."
In this regard, it should be remembered that the management for the transfer of the Fajardo battery is an initiative begun during the third quarter of 2016, in direct contact with the Ministry of Defense.
Until López de la Alcaldía left, the process was in its final phase, with a proposal of the specifications regarding the concession demanded by the Consistory, a step prior to the establishment of the bases of the definitive agreement.
Roman Sillar of San Ginés de la Jara
In another order of things, Ricardo Segado, has advanced that his training claim that the Roman ashlar of the Monastery of San Ginés de la Jara, recovered after an investigation of the Civil Guard in August 2017 back to Cartagena and be guarded where best, according to the technical criteria of the Archaeological Heritage Coordinator and the competent technicians for this purpose.
After its recovery, it was the General Directorate of Cultural Assets of the Autonomous Community that took charge of the sillar, currently unknown where this piece is and what are the municipal procedures that have been put in place for the ashlar to return to your city of origin.
