Citizens urges the City Council to review and evict other buildings at risk of collapse

After the fortuitous evictions of the buildings of Suertes del Mar and the Antonio Catalá Group with only a few weeks apart, the Citizens group has announced that it will present a motion to the next plenary session so that the City Council reviews and vacates the ruined buildings that currently exist in the town.

The mayor and spokesman for the formation, Sergio Benito, explained that the motion will be based on two points. The first of them will request that the same eviction procedure be applied to buildings that currently present some serious anomaly and are in danger of collapsing. In this regard, Benito recalled that currently there are «edificios en ruinas que están ocupados ilegalmente que son peligrosos para esos propios ocupas».

The second point of the motion is to establish a protocol of action for future evictions and to allocate aids from the City Council and the Department for the rehabilitation of these buildings. With this motion they pretend that the consistory does not allow any citizen to inhabit a house that is not in conditions.

Benito applauded the action of the City Council in the case of the building of the group Antonio Catalá, although he regretted the way in which it was carried out in eviction of the building of Suertes del Mar. In this case, the mayor of Ciudadanos denounced the lack of coordination between the technicians of the city council and the owners.

They leave the committee of inquiry

They have been announcing it for a few weeks and it is already a reality: Citizens have left the Commission for Investigation of Expropriations that forced to pay to the City of Denia 12 million euros.

This «cuestión de convicción», según Benito, se debe a que no quieren «formar parte de cosas que no funcionan». En este sentido, desde Ciudadanos han denunciado que en siete meses no se ha avanzado, a la espera de unos papeles solicitados a la abogada que aún no han llegado.
