The Association for the Conservation of Huerta de Murcia has presented today a brief with the Heritage Service of the Autonomous Community, under the Directorate General of Cultural Heritage of the Ministry of Culture and Spokesman where placement complaint new pots by the City of Murcia in Old Bridge.

This monument of the city of Murcia was recently protected by the Autonomous Community, which has begun to declare a record as a Cultural Interest.

As required by resolution of the Director General, from the initiation of this file, the Old Bridge and has provisionally with maximum protection monumental regional and national legislation has on cultural heritage.

Within this file, the Heritage Service included the protection of the nineteenth-century lampposts on both sides of the bridge as an integral part of the BIC also provide that any action that would carry on the Old Bridge or any of the elements should follow current legislation and be presented to the regional government for evaluation and approval, if applicable.

To Huermur is incomprehensible that once the city of Murcia and has knowledge of this matter, which he received notification from Culture, and the conditions it, the team Ballesta has repositioned the pots on lampposts, once they had retired and had been checking the damage produced both metal and stone bases.

Last days 2 and 3 September, operators of municipal contracts for public lighting and Gardens, came by scaffolding, a tow truck and a van, both with the logos of the City of Murcia, new pots placed on lampposts of Old Bridge, with several pipes along both sides.

HUERMUR already highlighted in the application for protection as BIC, through a file-report thirty pages, the damage caused by the pots and moisture transmitting your irrigation system, which were highlighted in the declaration file protection.

The resolution of initiation, issued by the General Director of Cultural Heritage of the CARM, recognizes the "outstanding cultural value for the Region of Murcia" the Old Bridge, as it is not only "an essential element of the city leaning on the river but it is itself generating element in the urban fabric, to allow for expansion to the south ".

That is why the pro-heritage association claims that, once the Council has ignored the resolution of the autonomous region, who it is appropriate to investigate these facts and if they do not have the necessary authorization available to the resolution Proceed to urge the council to its withdrawal, as well as effective enforcement of such order.

Since HUERMUR, we understand that these events show once again the true face of the municipal government, "beyond your ads with great fanfare, the reality of the city of Murcia is still neglecting the important values ​​of cultural heritage".

For this group, "the placement of these pots again shows that nothing has changed in terms of assets to the government of the City, although there are new faces policies remain the miasma" and that "it does not seem Ballesta interested in heritage protection, but rather the worst of camarismo continue. "
