In the opinion of the mayor of the PSOE, these works are not included in any global project of conservation and enhancement of the deposit, since the Master Plan that will give way to a comprehensive intervention plan does not yet exist.

"If, in a few days, that Master Plan is ready, we do not understand the urgency or the raison d'être of these works. Who was the great idea and, above all, why?" Asked García Retegui, who Has recalled that, pending a comprehensive intervention plan that may or may not include these actions, "there are needs in other areas of the municipality such as the Basilica Paleocristiana Algezares or Martyrium of La Alberca, which could be covered with the three hundred thousand euros The Governing Board has decided to invest in works that are not part of any global project at the San Esteban site. "

In this sense, the socialist councilor has reproached the government team of Ballesta to invest such amount of money in works that, "if they do not fit the final project, must be discarded and will mean a higher outlay", and demanded PP "to stop advertising and unnecessary actions and work to protect the site of San Esteban once and for all.

"The important thing now is to have an intervention plan, to plan resources and to make decisions to conserve the deposit, but not to patronize without ton or are. That should have done the PP from the beginning, because what has been put at risk and continues in We do not know what this new idea of ​​doing a retouch here and there, but if we know that what is needed is not a fence now, a sidewalk later and a street lamp later, but a project of Protection of this part of our historical and cultural heritage, "he concluded.
