Murcia's change to the General Plan is the greatest threat is the garden, and you want the document presented by the City Council to reassess this historic agricultural area does not remain a mere makeup and evolve to a search for solutions with the participation of citizens , associations, institutions and political groups.
Murcia has little hope change to the Plan of Action of the Huerta made by the Department of Planning, Environment and Huerta, and warns that the draft presented stays in a list of actions without addressing the larger problem that threatens the garden, that is "excessive" urban growth that provides for land-use planning (Plan), which was drafted with the construction boom that has turned much of the fertile soil in land for development.
Councilman Sergio Ramos believes that the garden continues to deteriorate despite the PP announced "with great fanfare" protection, urban planning and reporting on demand that has prevailed in the city in recent years, whose consequences are still being noted.
Proof of this is the recent rejection of two partial plans Justice, the Young Future Bacons Bridge and a few days ago.
Or impasiblidad of the City Council to build a gas station on the bank of the river and protected from Huerta, in the Vereda de Solis ground.
For municipalist training, the General Plan is not feasible because the exaggerated growth forecasts for two million inhabitants are not met, and what it does is condemn the garden of Murcia to degradation and disappearance despite its historical, cultural , environmental, landscape, socio-economic and food sovereignty of the population.
"If that review of the General Plan many of the actions that are to be developed will be a dead letter in wanting to give a focus on agriculture and tourism upgrading to a largely classified as urban land does not occur." Said the group's spokesman Huerta sector and Model City's change Murcia, José Antonio Moreno Micol.
This review has indicated that the first solution proposed by the Naturba project is a moratorium on current planning instruments to design and implement the findings of the new schedule, and last week the deputy director of Planning, Antonio Clemente He warned that one of the main threats to the conservation of the garden of Murcia is the "overabundance of developable land."
To this must be added the large number of infrastructures that fragment the territory, many of which are unnecessary.
It is difficult to understand recovery Segura and Otter on the road when we see planes circulating along the riverbed, or other incomprehensibly cross cultural assets as the aqueduct wheel Nora or environment protection Jeronimos Monastery.
Nothing says the Plan of Action on the need to improve the planning discipline, or how to solve the illegal construction of houses or the proliferation of industrial buildings that have turned the garden into one of the largest illegal industry polygons Spain.
Furthermore, we find contradictory and harmful actions such as the transformation of a sheltered garden floor next to the River Segura in a gas station with car wash.
To all this we must add what happened last week with the Young Future development and resolution of the Supreme Court annulling a huge part plan that did away with the garden and Bacons Bridge without leaving their homes and way of life to many people.
The statements of council on appeal this ruling reveal that there is really no interest in preserving the Garden and only aim of this Action Plan a whitewash on a topic of growing concern to citizens.
On the actions outlined in the plan, for lack of a more concrete, Murcia's change create unnecessary and risky Murcia River Project, which is the flagship project document with a budget of 100,000 euros and for which it is intended to have a contest.
This project affects the entire riverbed where you want to include entertainment and recreation, as well as spaces for cultural and sports activities.
For us change the channel of the river is an area of ​​great value as part of the whole garden of Murcia, and any action that affects him to be aimed at the landscape and environmental recovery in which to collaborate citizenship within activities awareness, without contests or architectural projects or big budgets.
Surprise performance of tax incentives for maintaining agricultural activity, when in the October plenary session was rejected a motion of us change Murcia claimed the bonus of up to 90% of Property Tax (IBI) for which maintained farming in the garden of Murcia, trying in this way to recognize the work of farmers and farmers in conservation.
In short, from us we change Murcia we need in addition to the revision of the General Plan where the developable surface and the construction of infrastructure and improvement of urban discipline, the Action Plan of the Huerta is reduced has been working since recognition of the important work of men and women farmers and ensure a fair price for their products to make your business profitable;
education, knowledge and training as a means to raise awareness, ensure generational change, and seek the transformation of conventional activities in agro-ecological and quality products and investment in stages without big budgets recovery equipment, intangible and natural heritage, ensuring the participation of citizens and that the benefits from affecting the population.
Thus society as a whole can enjoy this space and the door opens to undertake tourism related activities enjoy the scenery.
Murcia expected to change the Plan of Action of the Huerta is an initial document that can be developed with transparency and participation, and that really contains a spirit of preservation and enhancement of the Huerta.
If so, we welcome, but that is something that remains to be demonstrated.
