Live from Murcia Huerta believe this debate need to be clear that this is an oversized Plan and which is one of the greatest threats to the conservation of the garden of Murcia as agricultural area, historical, cultural and identity.
After 15 years of implementation of land-use planning of Murcia, a period in which many changes have been approved, it is necessary to assess its validity to suit the current situation and a greater respect for the rural environment.
The General Plan 2001 destined soil to about 1 million.
In 2006, with adaptation to the Land Law of the Region of Murcia, it was expanded to about 2 million, though at present we do not reach the 450,000 inhabitants.
This forecast oversized because of the "boom" urban has caused severe damage to the rural area of ​​the municipality, mainly to the historical garden of Murcia where the General Plan has become the largest of its threats.
In addition to various social groups, there are many voices that they have been denouncing.
Already NATURBA project in 2009 proposed a moratorium on planning instruments in order to implement the findings of a more respectful replanning between the city and its rural surroundings.
The Ministry of Development recently warned that one of the main threats to the conservation of the garden of Murcia is the "overabundance of developable land", being convenient reconsider its dimension and that "the city of Murcia could continue to grow without expanding its urban sprawl, avoiding pressure on the garden city ".
Recently it has learned of a study by the University of Murcia, published in the online journal "Ecosystems" which warns of the vulnerability of the Garden and the decoupling of this unique landscape with society Murcia, being necessary to stop the transformation of traditional agrarian landscape in an uncontrolled urbanization.
To all this must be added the Supreme Court against the amendment of the General Plan in 2005 to build the Future Young urbanization, and the cancellation of a large part plan that aimed to develop in the orchard Bacons Bridge.
To Murcia Huerta Viva it is essential to review the General Plan adapted to current social demands, new technical and legal requirements, and environmental protection criteria and garden soil.
It has therefore invited all political groups represented in the city of Murcia, several specialists and numerous social groups to a meeting to discuss the necessary renovation to be carried out from the start with full transparency and participation.
The association believes that this is a great opportunity to start improving the town and encourage the development of socio-economic, cultural, environmental and tourist potential of the Huerta, seizing the drafting of regional guidelines and the necessary adaptation of the General Plan Law on Urban Planning and the Region of Murcia.
As a first action, Murcia Huerta Live propose at the meeting an analysis of the General Plan to know in depth the status and situation of the municipality and the degree of compliance, achieving objectives and assessing expectations.
From this diagnosis, more accurately we can determine how to intervene to achieve the objectives in the most flexible way.
Second, the assessment of the status and development of new land for development in the Plan in all its forms and the Special Urban Huerta, establishing a moratorium until the final decision.
The meeting will be held on Tuesday 12 at 18 h.
