Councilman Let's change Murcia Sergio Ramos today expressed its rejection of the Autonomous Community allows the UCAM build facilities in the North Campus of Los Jeronimos, where the building known as 'The Corralazo' was located, and that after being shot down hosts a parking to serve the students of the Catholic university.
'The Corralazo' was within a space that the City Council gave free to UCAM in 2007. After the demolition in 2011, both the Consistory as the Ministry of Culture expedientaron the private center to be responsible for the demolition of the building, protected in the General Plan.
All this has been done outside the Heritage Act Murcia, which forces have the permission of Cultural Property first to act in a protective environment BIC.
Therefore, "it was necessary that permission as an essential requirement for Urban Development grant a license, and the UCAM has been urbanizing environment without the permission of Culture".
This, explained Ramos, is a very serious offense with fines of 200,000 to 1,000,000 euros.
In addition, under the Act, in protected environments you can not build facilities scenically transform the monument and its surroundings, and aims to raise UCAM sports halls and large buildings.
"The Catholic University should make these facilities elsewhere and not at the cost of environment protection as emblematic as Los Jeronimos monument," he added.
For the council, it does not make sense why that from the Regional Government has allowed the UCAM start work for the construction of educational and sports facilities when investigating the case has not concluded and still remain concrete steps to meet with legislation and replace damage.
"Again we find that a public authority, in this case the Autonomous Community, benefits a private university adapting the rules at their discretion," he argued Ramos.
