El PSOE The councilor from Xàbia asked, in the plenary session for the month of August, held yesterday Thursday, for details of the 82 social housing units that are going to be built in the town, after the visit of the councilor a few days ago.

The mayoress of Xàbia, Rosa Cardona and the councilor of Urbanism, Pere Sapena, explained that the company that won the competition for the public plots will deliver a total of 16 homes to Xàbia, "that is, 11% of the volume of work, which represents 669m2 of the almost 6.000m2 that the company has given Town HallThe remaining 66 homes will go on sale. A profitable business for the developer and a mockery of the residents. In Xàbia, the system in which an owner gives up their plot in exchange for construction work is being implemented in exchanges of at least 25%, which can be increased depending on the location of the plot," said the Socialist spokesperson. José Chulvi.

Given this data, the Socialist Municipal Group stressed that "Xàbia is giving away two municipal plots in exchange for almost nothing. We demand that the allocation of the plots be halted and that the Regional Ministry be asked for a copy of the project submitted so that it can be studied by the urban planning committee in a
urgent".

Likewise, the land, located in Pou de Moro and valued at around 1 million euros, has been awarded by the Generalitat Valenciana through an exchange to a company that will build 'mini-apartments' For social housing. According to the Urban Planning Councilor, the homes will be 30, 41, and 44 m2 in size and will be studios or one-bedroom apartments. The larger houses will have two bedrooms, although the latter have not been awarded to the City Council.

Pere Sapena responded that the prices are fixed and the developer will not sell all the homes, but rather a number, yet to be determined, will be used for affordable rentals. In the case of the rental units, they will be priced at €600 per month. Regarding the exchange, Sapena emphasized that "a municipal plot for social housing is not the same as a private one."

The Socialist Municipal Group described the surface area of ​​these houses as "totally insufficient for decent housing. Furthermore, the apartments will have to bear the high community fees that come with a development with a garden and pool, something completely unnecessary in a public housing development."

    Councilman Sapena's justification of this agreement with "better this than nothing" is a case for the courts. It could be called disloyal administration. If he can't handle more than that as a manager of public funds, he should step aside and let someone else come in.

    The amount of butter that must be moved under the table for this gift to the promoter, in exchange for 16 storage rooms.

    Thirty years ago, a judge might have investigated this; today, the entire system is rotten and everyone eats out of the same hand.

  3. Enric says:

    For such results, 16 homes of 35, 40 MTS, there is no need to call plenary sessions or make statements that we need to solve the housing problems of young people or talk to the press about such misery. As I said, Champions of posturing and fallacy, there is no need to justify your actions, we all know what you are there for and why you are there.

    Do these idiots even know what social housing is? They don't know, and they don't care.

  5. Krispin says:

    This stinks, and have you noticed that there are no families with children who need social housing? Or maybe they're going to give them two of these micro-apartments in case they get divorced?
