HUERMUR requested by the Mayor Ballesta record participation of this conservation partnership in the Social Council of the City of Murcia.
Yesterday morning the Association for the Conservation of Huerta de Murcia presented in the Register of the City's application to join the Social Council of Murcia, as environmental and ecological association of local under article four of Regulation Organic Organization and Functioning of the Board of Murcia in paragraph 18 which states that the Social Council shall consist of members representing environmental organizations and environmental local level.
HUERMUR has also transmitted the Consistory some of the most important milestones of the Association such as its participation in the European project NATURBA making their proposals for the garden of Murcia and its environment were included in the conclusions of the European study where he worked the Autonomous Community of Murcia and the city, participation in various UNESCO conferences and visits his office paris collaboration agreement with the University of Murcia for advice, research and training in the field of cultural heritage, environment, sustainability and Murcia territorial management, as well as several publications in international journals, EtnoMurcia 2009 award for the recovery momentum and ethnological heritage of the garden of Murcia, and most recently, the 2015 Special Recognition Award Environment Association of Biologists Region of Murcia, among other events.
This Association has made this request because the Social Murcia City Council is a participatory mechanism of the main economic and social organizations of the municipality, focused mainly on the field of local development and strategic urban planning, these areas that they are becoming importance in local politics.
HUERMUR believed very necessary to have an organization that represents the interests of the garden of Murcia and the natural ecosystem posed to Murcia, apart from the Board of Landowners who is an ex officio member, but his image has been marred in recent years by various actions Pipings ditches, selling water from the garden to other communities, and immersion in numerous legal proceedings, one resolved with the conviction of its former president Sigifredo Hernandez for a crime against the heritage, to Just under eight months member of the Board of the City Murcia ago.
And also because now, the City Council intends to make an "action plan of the garden," since we HUERMUR insufficient and that does not solve the root problem that suffers the garden of Murcia, which is bad planning Plan General urban effect.
We consider very important the participation of the Association for the Conservation of Huerta de Murcia in said Social Council to ensure the preservation of vegetable gardens and orchards that remains and the natural environment and lifestyle it represents.
