After a tour with neighbors in the neighborhood, CTSSP-PODEMOS has found that in addition to collapsed housing, there are at least 50 others at a similar risk.
In addition to the obvious danger to citizen security, the situation is an irrefutable sign of the state of abandonment in which are the most populated neighborhoods of the municipality, an inattention that is accentuated by the lack of public policies and the constant patches put by the Government , here or there, as the discomfort of the people grows and manifests itself in the streets.
Pilar Marcos, spokesman for the municipal group, also claimed that in the case of the collapse of housing in San Antón, it had to be the neighbors themselves who did the relief and first aid tasks, and not the Civil Protection service, which has seen Its benefits have been reduced since the Government split up and privatized the service of the volunteers.
The distressing situation of San Antón, with abandoned lots, lack of basic services, plague of rodents and garbage, is not an exception in Cartagena, nor is it solved, as C's proposes, with the elaboration of a simple ordinance, and much less with the stubborn bonus of the ICIO that the Government has announced ... This would be to continue with the policy of patches.
For PODEMOS, the real solution is to implement comprehensive plans in the most depressed neighborhoods and towns of the municipality, with prior studies of needs, with adequate items to solve them and, above all, with a global perspective that aims at the full revitalization of the territories, taking care of all the aspects: employment, infrastructures, security, services, offer of leisure, unemployment, programs for the youth and majors, parks and gardens, social services, etc.
Likewise, in the particular case of the housing problem in San Antón and in other neighborhoods with similar characteristics, for the municipal group of Podemos an exhaustive study of the real estate park is needed, detecting the deficiencies, the risks, the economic situation of the families and the priorities of action according to all these factors.
Since Podemos have invited the Government to end the policy of makeup and patches in urban planning, including the necessary items in the draft budget of 2019. For the training purple only investing hard cash can reverse the disastrous urban policy of the PSOE, a black chapter in the history of Cartagena, characterized by the survival of Casco Antiguo, the annulled General Plan and the transitory rules, by the purchase of the land of El Hondón and the loss of subsidies (such as those of the ARRU) It penalizes the popular sectors, and has benefited only large promoters, landowners and speculators.
