The PSOE criticizes the refusal of the municipal government of Arico to return the quotas of the Canteras del Sol urbanization and its refusal to receive it. Olivia Delgado, socialist spokesperson, recalls that more than four years ago the neighbors paid 1,480,356 euros, each contributing thousands of euros “without even having an execution project in a file that the plenary itself agreed to paralyze, without even the councilman, Andrés Martínez, nor the government complied with the stoppage of the collection». This forced the City Council to carry out the works in a year, “but they have neither started nor have they returned the money.”
Delgado establishes that the mayor, Sebastián Martín, then accused “his current government partners (CC-PP) of having collected the fees improperly.” In addition, he “advocated the figure of the tacit reception of urbanization.” The councilwoman defends that those affected, “after so many years of neglect by CC-PP and Primero Arico, have to see their commitments fulfilled.”
In the hands of gesture
From the municipal government, it is assured that it is working so that Gestur “accelerates the drafting of the project” and for its approval. In addition to clarifying that the residents are informed of the status of the file, he emphasizes that “any action by the City Council must be supported by legal and economic reports, which have been clear so far. We will act firmly and fairly, but in accordance with the technicians.
The PSOE is asked to explain why it intends to include this matter outside the plenary agenda, without a commission opinion or the mandatory reports. “She will have to explain why, being Delgado mayor, she did not initiate the procedures to return the fees if she sees it so easily.” The government group asks the Socialists for “a constructive, responsible and honest opposition” and reminds them that they lead the regional government, owner of the Gestur company. “The residents of Abades rightly complain about the PSOE’s outrage against their people, denying them school, the hotel project and delaying the Canteras del Sol urbanization project.”
