At noon this Thursday, with the presence of mayor Francisco Azcué and the Secretary of Planning and Public Investment of the Province, Architect Leila Recalde, the presentation of two projects aimed at advancing structural solutions to benefit families affected by the flood was held, prepared by the technical teams of the Municipal Autonomous Housing and Land Institute (INVyTAM).
This is the “Plan for Housing and Environmental Emergency”, whose focus is to revitalize the northwest area, with its epicenter in the Agua Patito neighborhood and the implementation of a resettlement project, which includes the Nebel, Belgrano Sur, and Villa Busti neighborhoods.
FUNDAMENTAL SOLUTIONS
In this regard, mayor Azcué explained that while working on the response to the current emergency due to the rising of the Uruguay River, “we have two projects, one medium-term that has to do with the relocation of families residing in affected areas, and another, long-term, with more volume, where the government of the province of Entre Ríos, the IAPV, and the Municipality intervene together”.
The objective is to “think about fundamental solutions, which require a lot of work and investment. We are emerging from this emergency situation, accompanying the return of families to their homes but without letting our guard down,” adding that carrying out a relocation process “is not so simple because one must take into account that there are children who have to go to school, parents who have to go to work, and this requires the development of a series of comprehensive aspects to achieve such an end”.
Azcué stressed that although the projects presented require external financing, one of them “will be done with our own resources and for that, we are going to make an effort. That is why it is important to take care of public resources”.
Finally, he highlighted the work of the INVyTAM technical team, which is made up of “people with a lot of experience who have developed very important projects such as the one carried out in the Mujica neighborhood, in Buenos Aires”.
On behalf of the provincial government, the Secretary of Planning and Public Investment, Architect Leila Recalde, was present, who pointed out that contact is maintained with the Municipality and there is knowledge of what is happening in Concordia regarding the floods “and that is why we are here to accompany the Municipality in whatever it requires and take this demand with us to obtain financing”.
Alejandra Bruno, head of INVyTAM, explained that the two projects presented have different deadlines and that they were developed within the Comprehensive Management Plan to reach definitive solutions “to a situation that affects us more frequently”.
Participating in the presentation were the Salto Grande Regional Director of the Autonomous Institute of Planning and Housing (IAPV), Alfonso Sá, and the Secretary of Urban Development, Alejandro López.
