- The Government of Cartagena pledged in 2012 to insure these abandoned facilities, "but it was not done, nor have they moved a finger since 2015 nor PSOE nor MC", lamented the local spokesman of Cs, Manuel Padín who has announced that he will carry this issue to the next plenary session
Cartagena, Friday November 23-.
Citizens will take to the next ordinary plenary the situation in which the old sewage treatment plant of Barrio Peral, also known as the old Mandarache sewage treatment plant, is located 50 meters from a school.
Cs will ask that the area located between Víctor Beltrí Avenue and Pajarita Street be leveled as a preventive measure to block the continuous incursions inside by children and adolescents due to its easy access due to its proximity to the educational center and the green Way.
In addition, he will ask for a technical report that supposedly was made six years ago to assess the need to secure the site.
This announcement was made shortly after a boy fell through a drop of more than two meters in the abandoned sewage treatment plant.
The facilities consisted of three missing pools but the building for the old pump house and for the electrical installation of the whole remains;
it has a frame that barely supports a set of decrepit tiles, which can fall at any time on any of the children who usually come to play.
The spokesman for Citizens in Cartagena, Manuel Padín, explained that his group has collected several complaints from neighbors about the dilapidated state in which it is located and the danger it poses for the students of the aforementioned school, "they tell us that many of them tend to go to this space as if it were an intimate refuge where, among other things, they practice their technique with graffiti, and they do it without being aware of the danger of being in a half-demolished building with a roof that falls to pieces for more than a decade. "
As recently recalled the newspaper El Digital de Cartagena, in 2012 La Verdad published an article in which, according to sources of the City, it was assured that the land where these facilities are located are municipal property, but were included in one of the partial plans associated with the North Access and the Mandarache Shopping Center, so the urbanization was in the hands of a private company.
The crisis of the real estate market of those years paralyzed the housing promotion.
The Planning Department of Cartagena announced in February 2012 that it would inspect and evaluate the state of the area to draft a report to force the planning company, if necessary, to fence the facilities to prevent accidents from occurring.
According to Manuel Padín, "after six years of this announcement, and despite the obvious dangers involved for, among others, the kids of Colegio Hispania, neither the PP government of that time, nor the coalition of PSOE and MC, nor the PSOE they have just moved a finger to ensure safety in this environment.
