At a press conference held this morning, the spokesman for IU-Greens in the city of Murcia, Esther Herguedas, has demanded the resignation of the Mayor of Murcia, Miguel Ángel Cámara, who has been identified as the main driver and head of the corrupt urban model who chaired the municipal life of the last decade, following the approval of PGMO of Murcia in 2001.
Councillor Herguedas, accompanied by fellow Councilman Ignacio Tornel and the municipal coordinator of IU-Greens, Paco Muñoz, stated that Miguel Angel House opened its model of "urbanism on demand" in 2001 with the New Condomina agreement, force out after a councilor honest as Ginés Navarro, temporarily designate as intermediary Megías Pilar "useful" with which to maintain their control over local planning and place, between 2003 and 2011 this position to Fernando Berberena, counsel for the builders.
Herguedas highlighted Berberena's appointment was made at a key moment for the city planning, adaptation of the General Plan to the Land Law.
A moment in which besides the absence of UI in the Municipal Corporation (2003-2007) led to a marked lack of control to local government action, and enabled gestation and approval without any problems of many of the more than 120 specific changes in urban planning.
Some changes that eventually favoring certain interests, and harming the public interest.
Circumstance it repeatedly denounced by IU-Greens, both in public opinion, and, later, in town meetings.
Herguedas wondered how can the Mayor claim lack of information to something that everyone knew?, Adding that from a humble training like ours not only have we highlighted many of these irregularities, but we have also given a name to the beneficiaries thereof, concluding that "we were missing only the photos of the yacht and bills of watches, and we already have".
During this time, added the IU-V Councilman, Mayor, rather than take the actions that we demanded to review these agreements has been limited to ratify hiding and justifying the endorsement of the municipal.
It has been argued that "House is still relying on the alleged formal legality of these decisions, not caring that they were indecent and be based on immorality, abuse, illicit enrichment, speculation, influence peddling, bribery or insider "taking an obvious counterpart sacrifice the general interest of an orderly and rational urban planning, the envelopes, and the garden and much of our most iconic natural areas.
And all this while its policy in this area strengthened his political power.
The IU-Greens Councillor, concluded by saying that, apart from the obvious legal responsibilities and are substantiated in the courts of justice, the only political solution to all this is leading to the resignation of the Mayor of Murcia, prior immediately end all those technicians and officials accused in the case have yet to finger tasks assigned responsibility.
