GOBBO HIT THE MAYOR TO GIANT LUCCHESE



I Comuni a nord di Roma lungo la consolare Flaminia, da Sacrofano a Rignano Flaminio, passando per Riano, Castelnuovo di Porto e Morlupo, negli ultimi vent'anni sono stati investiti da una forte ondata migratoria, che ha portato molti romani a venire a vivere sulle dolci e verdi colline della zona, sospinti oltre che dall'amore per la campagna anche dai minori costi delle case rispetto a Roma.
Paesi che nel dopoguerra ospitavano 1500-2000 abitanti, oggi contano oltre 8000 residenti ed il trend di crescita non accenna a fermarsi.
Sono immaginabili le problematiche social and urban phenomenon of this magnitude that has generated and do not always (indeed, almost never!) local governments have been able to deal properly with tools (see plan) appropriate. The strong economic interests of landowners and builders clashed almost always prevail, with the needs of urban design that respond only to a shared vision of strategic development and harmonic territory, besides sustainable.
For this reason, the local political struggles and are found on the ground more confrontation on these issues.
The current political majority in Castelnuovo di Porto, led by Mayor Massimo Lucchese, is accused by the opposition di aver usato, in periodo elettorale, la Variante al piano regolatore generale come esca per fare pesca grossa fra gli elettori. Se è vero, dobbiamo dire che la cosa riuscì perfettamente, visto che vinse con oltre il 60% di voti !
Oltre a Lucchese, che in quanto a capacità istrionica di convinzione non è secondo a nessuno, chi si distinse nel promuovere fra i compaesani i vantaggi della Variante fu il gigante buono, che pazientemente, con l'immancabile mezzo toscano fra le labbra, ascoltava fino alla nausea i problemi e le aspettative dei compaesani. Infatti ad elezioni vinte, fu premiato dal sindaco, per il suo attivismo e per i voti raccolti, con la delega per l'assessorato all'urbanistica. Quando si dice l'uomo giusto al posto right!
course that version opens the way to much criticism, from the obvious lack of a vision of the strategic development of the country. In fact, we simply extend the existing wildfire in residential areas, emphasizing the original city that mistake over the years has made Castelnuovo an archipelago of residential areas, distant from each other and the old town, no one groped minimal action of "mending".
a variant that was to build the kindergarten and primary school far from any town, in the field, the stadium near the old town, the industrial area in the flooding of the Tiber without giving, however, answers to serious problems of urban village of Crooked Bridge, located on the Tiber, 10 km from the center of Castelnuovo, and with great growth prospects, given the proximity to the motorway building.
The problem is that all those who have been gratified by the Variation and have seen their agricultural land into building land, with all their economic benefits are likely to remain, so to speak, a dry mouth because so far, close the end of the term (the next spring there will be new elections!), the variant has not yet finished its bureaucracy and, therefore, is not ready to be sent to the region required for final approval. If by next December has not been sent, according to law, will expire irrevocably, being five years after its adoption.
The City Council had to discuss and vote on hundreds of comments to the variant "proposed by environmental organizations, political parties and citizens. There are still some "observations" to be submitted to the City Council and only after it has delivered its opinion on them, the version with all the "comments" discussion will be forwarded to the Region.
The gentle giant is on edge and we can understand. As we have seen has spent generously and now must give account of the political expectations that, unwittingly, had given rise to many villagers. But, incredibly, found an obstacle in its path: the mayor.
Already! Lucchese seems to have had second thoughts and no longer believe that the version adopted is the right solution for the problems of growth of Castelnuovo di Porto, even today considered to be completely inadequate for local development.
And the request to convene the City Council, made from gentle giant and four other commissioners to decide quickly on the latest "comments", said dry so as not to take the moral responsibility of this version is ready to resign and Therefore, to send home all the City Council! The Opposition asks
what the real motivation behind such a sudden conversion of the external auditor but his satisfaction in seeing undermined the variant that has always fought.
The mayor is the end of his second and last term and, probably, that this is going to make is the only act of his long rule of the country, which will be remembered in the future with special recognition from Castelnuovo. You will probably find comfort for his courageous decision in their studies of philosophy and, particularly, those on the ethics of responsibility of his beloved Weber. But the poor
gentle giant that can draw inspiration from philosopher to defend themselves from the wrath of the disappointed villagers? A Seneca?
