The Municipal Citizens Group has again received for registration a statement from the Association of Residents 'Old Town and Historic City of Cartagena' in that report that its Board has transferred to the Ombudsman their grievances and complaints about the state of abandonment in which is the historic Plaza del Lago in Cartagena.
