GDCU commitment to optimize the resources of the residence to remain public

"Surely the service is deficient, so what will be there is to create policies that optimize the resources of the Residence, taking advantage of the magnificent workers of the residence and improve the existing service". With these words, the mayoral candidate for GDCU, Pepa Font, pledged with the Asociación Ciudadana Pro-Residencia Santa Lucía that the center will continue to be municipally managed if it is her party that governs after May 24.

The meeting took place last week, and next to the alcaldable were the 4 and 7 number from the list, Marisa Armell and Emi Marcilla.

According Pepa Font, "they cannot impose social policies more than 500 kilometers away, since each case is unique and special. That uniqueness of the Residence makes it a symbol for the city and a sample of how the national parties do not look for the interest of the citizens, but for their own interest. "

Marisa Armell, meanwhile, said the discomfort of the members of the association to the imposition, by the Generalitat, the payment of annual fees 14. instead of the previous 12.

Emi Marcilla, which was the residence Councilwoman the last legislature, expressed the need to extend the hours of the Day Center, including the weekend. "That service is not only needed by our elders. It is the families that really find support at the Day Center, both psychologically and physically."

In addition, members of the Civic Association Pro-Residencia Santa Lucia requested that the possibility of improving access to the residence they consider should be studied "a danger for both drivers and pedestrians".
