The Municipal Socialist Group will present in the next Plenary, along with Now Murcia, a motion to urge Ballesta and the Autonomous Community to finally reach an agreement on the geographical delimitation of the BIC of La Nora River and to develop a Special Plan of More suitable management.
The socialist councilor, Enrique Ayuso explained that "Noria de la Nora is part of our most beloved heritage, so we are going to file a motion for the team of Ballesta and the Autonomous Community to agree and make a timely delimitation of the Geographical environment ".
Ayuso said that "in addition, we will demand that the City Council draw up a special plan for the most appropriate urban development" and has continued to insist that the socialists Murcia we will work to have more protected and not in conditions of neglect and deterioration in Which is a very important part of our historical and cultural heritage, declared BIC (Good of Cultural Interest).
Councilman Enrique Ayuso has insisted that "it is not understood how an element so characteristic of our identity as Murcia and so valuable, has not been respected until now and has not been taken into account when elaborating the unrealistic plans of PP ".
In this sense, the socialists ask both administrations to stop the conflict they have been fighting for more than five years and coordinate to delimit the environment of the Rueda, the aqueduct, Aljufía and Alfatego ditches, Churra la vieja, Churra la nueva and Rejicas ;
As well as the Mill of the Ñora, also known as Los Casianos.
Ayuso, having previously denounced the lack of protection of the BIC environment of the Ñora River, considers it of vital importance "to end the discrepancies between the City of Murcia and the Autonomous Community which only hurt the protection needed by a Property of Cultural Interest of such importance "and believes it essential to take this motion to Plenary" given that the lack of protection of the environment has lasted more than five years in which local and regional administrations have only shown the lack of interest in our cultural and natural heritage " .
The mayor of the PSOE also recalled that the Noria de La Ñora was declared a Property of Cultural Interest in 1982 and that, in 2001, within the General Plan of Urban Planning, the environment was classified with degree one of protection.
"However," said Ayuso, "the General Plan did not take into account the existence of the aqueduct or the complete environment and I do not contemplate BIC as a configurator of space, a historical error that still persists."
The socialist councilor has called on the City of Murcia to take into account the current situation and in future adapts urban planning to the situation of protection of cultural heritage required by the area, prioritizing the conservation of the environment to urban planning.
"To do this, of course, we must end the a-la-carte urbanism that is the official brand of the PP and bet once and for all for an urbanism that preserves our natural and cultural values."
On the other hand, as was announced at an earlier press conference, the Socialist Parliamentary Group has registered in the Regional Assembly an initiative to establish a negotiating table between the Autonomous Community and the City of Murcia, with the participation Of organizations in defense of heritage and culture, the Royal Academy of Fine Arts, technicians and politicians, whose aim must be to end these over five and a half years of permanent institutional conflict and with the current lack of protection of the environment.
The conflict, which goes back to 2011, began when the Directorate General of Fine Arts and Cultural Heritage sought to delimit the BIC environment based solely on a visual criterion.
This gave rise to an administrative dispute initiated by the City of Murcia, given that there are areas from which neither the Noria nor the Aqueduct can be seen but should be delimited.
Finally, after more than five years, the dispute was resolved last July, partially estimating the appeal of the City of Murcia.
That is why, from the Socialist Municipal Group, "we consider this motion to be basic, which is now added to Murcia, which protects once and for all a cultural, historical and natural heritage that characterizes our land", concluded Enrique Ayuso.
