- "The PSOE has shown how dangerous it is for the general interest with its latest political decisions, voting against the approval of the transitory urban regulations to unlock millionaire investments, meet their budget forecast and avoid millionaire claims, and now paralyzing procedures without legal coverage "
- Manuel Padín recalls that MC defended without complications the continuation of the processing of Novo Carthago, "charged against ANSE for the suggestion now proposed by the prosecutor, and limited themselves to saying that they would continue processing the project so as not to prevaricate, and defended the construction of thousands of homes in that area, who now say that we must protect the Mar Menor with the Law and endorse the arguments they have read in the press, is nothing short of hypocritical and opportunistic "
On the occasion of the ultimatum given by the company Hansa Urbana to the mayor and new town planning councilor, Ana Belén Castejón, to resume the necessary administrative procedures to reactivate the Novo Carthago urban project, the spokesperson for Citizens in Cartagena, Manuel Padín, considers that "the circumstances and facts are serious enough for the mayor to summon the Urban Planning Commission, or an extraordinary Board of Spokespersons, and inform the rest of the political parties that represent 83 percent of the electorate," as requested by the CTSSP-Podemos training.
Cs reported that today the City Council has convened the Urban Planning Information Commission, but has not included this item in the Agenda.
"If he does not do so, we will support any measure in the Plenary that is aimed at this direction", said the Cs Cartagena spokesman who justifies his decision affirmed "the socialists have shown that we can not leave them alone, their last political decisions have been overwhelmingly Incoherent and dangerous for the general interest of Cartagena, have voted against approving the urban transitional rules to unlock millionaire investments, meet the income forecast in the municipal budget, and avoid millionaire claims, and have paralyzed procedures without legal coverage as the of Novo Carthago ".
"If by virtue of the transparency they have done it to account for a subsidy of 100,000 euros to the local futsal team, I believe that the threat of a claim for damages in the amount of 140 million euros is sufficient for explain to the people of Cartagena and the politicians who represent them what their plan is to avoid it, "says Manuel Padín.
In the absence of direct explanations from the Government of Cartagena, and after analyzing the information published by the newspaper La Verdad, the orange spokesperson understands that "the processing of this project can not be suspended only with a decision of the Governing Board based on a report municipal legal, but it requires the legal protection of annulling the Specific Modification 113 canceling the planning for various administrative irregularities committed by the regional government of the PP, or receiving a positive response from the Provincial Court on the issue of criminal prejudiciality, via that still needs to be resolved. "
"It's almost ironic, but even our only hope to stop the project are precisely the mistakes of the PP," explains Padin who details that as suggested by the prosecutor could cancel the current PORN Mar Menor for not having taken public information, so that would govern the 1998 that maintains the protection of the area, or cancel the procedure for the lack of a favorable report of the Confederación Hidrográfica del Segura (CHS) on the availability of water.
"What we also do not understand is how MC and PSOE have not been able to embark on this path since 2015, when environmental groups such as ANSE were already pointing it out: the prosecutor has only failed to make luminous signals," says Manuel Padín, who recalls that edile of MC, José López has defended without complications the continuation of the processing of Novo Carthago, "charged against ANSE by the suggestion now proposed by the prosecutor, and were limited to say that they would continue the processing of the project not to prevaricate, and defended the construction of thousands of homes in that area. "
"Now that they say that we must protect the Mar Menor with the Law and endorse the arguments they have read in the press, it is little less than a sloppy and opportunistic hypocrite," Padín concludes.
