María Mut on the Mediterranean Bar: 'Who cares ...'

Town Planning Councilor of the City of Dénia, María MutHe has wanted to step out of the accusations on the performance of the consistory in the matter of Bar Mediterranean. For your interest, we reproduce his opinion piece:

"As a councilor of Urban Discipline, I sign all the licenses that are issued in Dénia. And yes, I signed the partial demolition license of the Mediterranean Bar. Whoever says that I hide, lies. But it is that in this matter you have lied - a lot - and has gotten even more dizzy.

From the beginning. The Mediterranean Bar has never cared for anyone before the 2009 year, and that was falling apart long before then. Remember or confirm it with many people who for various reasons made use of it in those times. It was dangerous, rubble fell to the street and also inside. The deterioration was increasingly accelerated and nobody cared. At least it did not matter to those who governed then, as for example to Mr. Grimalt, who was Councilman of Urbanism while the Mediterranean was falling apart and did nothing, did not move a finger to avoid it.

In the 2009 year, and now with the Socialists out of the government of Denia, the first execution order is issued to the owners of the property. That is, the first warning of the City of Dénia of the bad conditions in which the building is requiring owners to act to avoid greater evils. It was the first, I insist, because there have been many more later.

we finally presented a demolition project that was passed to the joint committee, which is who evaluates all the projects they want done on protected buildings. As such, from the Joint Committee a set of guidelines to protect the items were labeled.

In the 2012 year it is approved by the Municipal Corporation, in full and without any municipal group, the new catalog object. Soon, the company presents its project, complying with the protection to which it was bound by the opinion of the Joint Committee. The project included a partial demolition, and after verifying that it met the conditions imposed by the City Council, the license was granted. License to sign me because I who signed licenses provided they have favorable technical reports. And this project had favorable reports said.

But the company, instead of doing the project for which the license was granted and proceed to a partial demolition, the building completely demolished. When this happens, I ordered automatically paralyze the execution and di partly prosecutor, to investigate possible damage incurred to Dianense cultural heritage, already irreversible. Next, the company turned my decision to paralyze the execution of the project, and his argument was tremendous: the building was not protected, not in the catalog and could throw him.

Regardless of whether it is being processed disciplinary proceedings (obviously did not fit the presented project) there are many things we do not understand. For example: why did this descatalogación that led us to run out of the building ?. That's exactly what we want to clarify.

For this reason, when the PSOE He filed a motion to request a special commission of inquiry, my group supported it and voted in favor. But the only conclusion that was really drawn from this commission was the following: that there has been an error in the transcription and because of it, the building of the Mediterranean Bar, which is the number 68 of the Calle Marques de CampoHas been checked out because listed as protected is the number 66, yes, that so high that there is next.

We could get to be satisfied with this explanation, as it seems that the other political groups in the inquiry commission were formed. And I say this because they asked absolutely nothing. But the fact is that we are not satisfied.

Things are not so simple. We not rule out that it has actually been a mistake, but what if you have not been? Who would be responsible? And the other buildings (more than 200) who were unprotected in the catalog? They have also been simple mistakes?

For this reason, and given that we consider the administrative channels exhausted, we have informed the Prosecutor of these facts. Let them investigate where we cannot reach. And if it really has been a mistake, we must assume it. But if there has been something else, do not go unpunished. "
