The rehabilitation project, prepared by the municipal company Urbamusa, indicates that the roof of Pavilion 1 "will be passable and will allow its use for possible outdoor events and serve as a lookout for the neighborhood."
However, after asking Now Murcia in the period of allegations, Urbamusa's response has been that "the projected access to the cover of Pavilion 1 is exclusively for maintenance, not foreseeing its public use in this project"
NOW MURCIA has detected "an important contradiction" in the rehabilitation project of the Artillery Barracks, which "goes to demonstrate once again the fudge and lack of rigor that are often protagonists of the urban development and infrastructure of the Government of Ballesta" .
Alicia Morales explains that the rehabilitation project, prepared by the municipal company Urbamusa, indicates that the roof of Pavilion 1 "will be passable and will allow its use for possible outdoor events and serve as a lookout for the neighborhood."
However, after asking Now Murcia about this matter in the period of allegations of the project, Urbamusa's response has been that "the projected access to the cover of Pavilion 1 is exclusively for maintenance, not foreseeing its public use in this project" .
"How is it possible that the same entity, in this case the Urbamusa company," the councilor asks, "say in a few days one thing and its opposite?".
The mayor says that "the rehabilitation of the Artillery Barracks is a very important project for the city and especially for the Carmen neighborhood, which has been waiting for it for decades, and it is not serious that when it is finally going to be tackled, it will emerge at the first I change serious contradictions, and this is also a project that is not exactly cheap, since it has a budget of 3.3 million euros. "
Morales states that "according to the project, the works that have been tendered are only to convert pavilions 1 and 2 into containers of activities, but without configuring the distribution of the spaces or the uses they will have, so once this is finished this project will have to go back to do works to enable the spaces to the uses that are going to have.The fact that there are two projects will delay the development of the pavilions ".
The councilor recalls that "the City Council says that it does not have enough capacity to do these projects and that is why Urbamusa is entrusted, but we see what is the result of this covert outsourcing, which results in bungled, contradictory projects, and that put in risk legal security ".
The spokeswoman of Ahora Murcia also stresses that "in several cases we have seen that the City Council awards its projects with contracts with almost reckless losses, which end up being canceled halfway through the execution of the contract or even before it starts".
