Chronology of events
In August 2014 the residents of both buildings, located in the Nieves Viudes Romero Street in Beniaján, were alarmed by the noises and cracks that occurred in both buildings.
After bringing the facts to the attention of the competent authorities (Fire and Local Police), it was found that both buildings were affected and Urbanismo decreed the eviction as a preventive measure.
Emuasa verified a fault in the water supply that supplies both buildings and proceeded to its immediate repair.
Appropriate measures were taken to secure the buildings, by injecting concrete, achieving its stability.
The neighbors filed a claim for Patrimonial Responsibility before the City of Murcia and a contentious-administrative appeal was filed before the Courts of Murcia, which is currently suspended at the request of those affected.
The Consistory, after the prescriptive opinion of the Legal Council of the Region of Murcia, attributes the responsibility to the company Emuasa.
After the negotiation with the affected families, an initial agreement was reached that has materialized today in the signing of a definitive agreement between both parties.
