What residents are still waiting for at the halfway point
Halfway through the council term, the southern neighbourhoods of Alicante are still waiting for action on our demands.
1. Access and lighting at Parque del Mar.
2. Removal of the railway designation from ADIF’s Benalúa Sur land.
3. Move Avenida de Elche further inside the port.
4. Develop the Harineras planning area in Benalúa Sur and restore the old flour mills.
5. A community centre and a day centre in Benalúa.
6. Develop Sector IV of the former sack factory plan, including the ruined homes on Avenida de Elche.
7. A landscaped square on Calle Nadadora Carmen Soto.
8. A council-run nursery on Calle Rosa Chacel.
9. Extend the tram and improve bus routes in the southern neighbourhoods.
10. The City of Music in Benalúa Sur.
Can our mayor, @Luis Barcala, pass these outstanding subjects before the end of term?
We realise southern Alicante is rarely a favourite subject with our mayors, despite being an essential part of the city. We cannot understand why.
Here in the south, we will continue to support those who help us improve the area and stand up to those who ignore and disregard us, whatever their political colours.
Alicante sets the council its ‘homework’ for the rest of the term.
