Councilman Let's change Murcia Sergio Ramos has today asked the government team "to continue not patching urbanism" in the municipality and expedite the review of land-use planning (Plan), because the current is completely outdated to include a provision " unreal "increase in population (nearly two million people today).
This creates, in the words of Ramos, a lack of infrastructure because construction (areas without sidewalks, basic storm sewers unfinished roads uncompleted access, etc.) depends on the development of new areas where no progress is expected in the last years.
Ramos has asked the government team while the Laboratory of Urban Research at the Polytechnic University of Cartagena (UPCT) does not prepare the first report to review the General Plan following the approval of a motion last January, "stop patching Murcia unless it is by extreme necessity. "
In his view, a review "a la carte" plan would allow the local government a "margin of discretion", being a process that requires the implementation of mechanisms for transparency, consultation bodies and reporting.
In addition, "the review piecewise distorts the concept of General Plan", he has held Ramos.
Let's change has opted for Plan "real" Management, which has the collaboration of associations and groups, and based on a rational and comprehensive project.
In fact, it has been advanced that it will propose that for any General Plan amendment affecting a hamlet take into account a report by the corresponding Municipal Board.
