IN RESPONSE TO THE PRESS RELEASE OF DOVE CANO COUNCILMEMBER CITY COUNCIL WORKS ALCOBENDAS
The pictures show how again without have the views of neighbors, are now eliminated the gardens, a new sign of arrogance ... and citizen participation, both from our City Council proclaims.
Once again we are in the position to give reply to the statements of the works councilor, Paloma Cano. According to Councillor, the gardens of No. 89-91 of Manuel de Falla and as such are from the 90's, are now road area and can be used as necessary.
Gardens is surrounded by the community with the commitment of the municipality of maintenance and preservation, and gardens.
also said that the City has asked the opinion of several merchants and restaurateurs of the area, and asked him to improve the recreation deck. And so will solar paving a portion of the existing earthen so that the terraces have a good disposition, good for business and for the enjoyment of residents.
Curious these statements when all the shops and restaurants in the affected area to the Mayor sent the following note on December 16, 2009.
We disagree with the bike path here because:
- sidewalks are eliminated in a walking area. It
- exacerbates the security of the area.
- It threatens our business, both from the terraces, for the danger involved in travel these two hundred and fifty meters on the bikes across the 22 stores and garage entrances. We
- causing pedestrians can not walk safely through the area.
- induces the commercial area, go into decline.
- We returned the sidewalks.
- fix is \u200b\u200bfinished areas not yet completed.
- harmony is restored, both in the area As with all neighbors. For all this only causes confrontation.
For the best enjoyment of residents, not a thing to ramble, just before the terraces were 15 meters and now have under the balconies. And of course that these terraces affected only thing they have done is reduce the space it previously had.
councilor also says there have been many meetings. Well these are the many meetings:
First Meeting
was a meeting in the area where the track is located, where the Mayor was planning his inauguration, that this had to operators working on the night before she was finished. Yet to see the rejection of the locals decided to tell us that if we did not see it we presented alternatives, all this was that meeting that all the neighbors wanted to talk and nobody heard anything, except that we receive when we had other options in total in the first half hour meeting.
This meeting took place in December, shortly after the November full promised to meet us urgently: Only at the insistence and communicated told us to come talk to us.
Second meeting
again after the patient waiting and seeing that happening to us, because from the day following the first meeting and had our alternatives. We received the January 25 to tell us that it would consider our proposal and would make a technical assessment by our proposal with the work carried out by the municipality, with a commitment to send the assessment so that we could estimate the time undertook in this meeting to send a letter describing the alternative given to us to fix the sidewalks reivindicábamos we were not finished, and we were told that they were owned by communities, and the amendment of striped parking of vehicles recognized that they were ill-disposed. All this at a meeting of lightning, as the SR. Mayor was in a hurry and left us at the table with their coaches.
Neither assessments sent us or sent us a letter explaining to resolve the issue of sidewalks, and of course has changed the scoring of the car.
Nevertheless and due to the bombardment of press releases and e so that we receive, we convened on March 2, of course, without us ordered the evaluations of the alternatives that we had sent, spurred by which we were in an unwillingness to challenge the assessment.
Third meeting
In this meeting we made it clear that what they did they would not move and that the evaluation of its technicians was the highest rated proposal. Something that once we were able to assess with the same parameters was exactly the opposite.
at this meeting we reiterate that the most urgent letter may be sent to the committee and the presidents of the communities the famous letter to resolve the unfinished sidewalk.
But once again we are at the end of April and we still do not receive the letter, without reforming the striped for parking of vehicles, and as always the people in this case the residents of Manuel de Falla did not choice but to continue to claim what they believe is most fair for everyone. Evidence of this is over a thousand signatures collected and we will continue collecting.
These are the many meetings that are Councillor referred Paloma Cano.
regard to the project conceived by the three municipalities to join the cities with the bike path (San Sebastian de los Reyes, Alcobendas Madrid) no one is against it so.
All I say is that analyzing the most logical way, but safer and less complicated to do so. Anyway, the time will see and we'll see when and how to do this union.
This committee, which is not only the voice of neighbors and passersby who regularly use this area for walks and needs, continue collecting signatures for send to our mayor who somehow was elected by the people and some of the neighbors are Manuel de Falla.
why we ask you to become a reality "citizen participation" before performing the work, because it will become a mere formality to conform to all citizens without listening to what they propose.
