AT STAKE
The political and institutional events that led to the identification of the area to build a new hospital and the signature of the program contains a wealth of ideas reflection, both about the choices, and on possible ways of understanding the territorial government and participation.
the previously mentioned program agreement is referred to a technical paper and appreciation of the City Council of this document between July and December 2008 there were, then, for all time be open to a confrontation with the city choices and to link the revision of the Structure Plan. So it was not.
The convocation of the referendum, the municipal decision of location of the new hospital, the success of the collection of signatures are testimony to the desire of citizens and citizens not to be relegated to the role of mere spectators, and is a desire felt and expressed by men and women of different cultural and political orientation, which escapes the logic of institutional deployments. How
Observatory urban transformation, since October of last year, which is when the press began to appear some news, we have developed documents, put questions to another without receiving answers about the whole affair. Our opposition was not and is not ruling against a new hospital, but is primarily a critical way of practicing the "government" of the territory for "emergencies" later, without an overall plan, clearly and openly discussed. And we are very worried that create a unique work of public interest (the new hospital), make available, through the sale of a private market share of large public assets (buildings and areas). These buildings and those areas to be attractive to the private market, in fact, must be, to use the technical term "enhancement", ie have an economically attractive target for private investors, with inevitable consequences marginal land use in our city . And again the private market is called to intervene for nearly a third of the total cost of the new structure with the formula of project financing.
And then, as the network will consist of health services? What are the costs of a new organization? We have some indications emerged only in the City Council in March 2010 that, in some cases, seem to contradict what is acted out in the program. Some examples are: District via the South Zone of the Sea, is in the list of buildings to sell and value in the text of the program (Resolution Regional 3/22/2010), the City Council, also last March, is shown as future home of district activities; District Centre Zone: in the claims submitted to the City Council is located in the current clinic, which, however, for in the program is between the property to be sell and value.
