Controversy over the gardening project
The PSPV-PSOE of Alcoy has recently responded to the criticism of winning Alcoy on a project involved in the felling of trees. In a press release issued on May 14, Guanya expressed concern about the environmental consequences of this initiative, but the Socialists have defended their decisions firmly.
Defense of technical management
PSPV-PSOE representatives have asked opponents to trust the professionals in charge of the execution of the project. They say that this plan has been accessible to the public since December 30 and that so far no formal complaint has been received. “It has been easier to criticize without reading the more than 600 pages of the project than a constructive debate,” they said.
Benefits for the city
According to the governing body, the project not only seeks the felling of trees, but also provides for a significant improvement in urban space. This includes the increase in parking areas and the connectivity of the bike lane, as well as the planting of 23 native trees that will replace the 12 banana trees that will be removed. This measure is considered essential to prevent damage that the roots of this type of tree can cause.
Criticism of the posture of winning
The Socialists have reminded that winning criticism is not new. Previously, this group questioned the work of municipal technicians responsible for pruning plans, without providing solid technical arguments. “Foundless opinions do not help improve projects,” they said.
The appeal to collaboration
Jordi Martínez, spokesman for the Socialist Municipal Group, has called for collaboration and understanding. “It is essential to rely on municipal technicians and make contributions at the right time, as this facilitates constructive debate. Subsequent criticisms are only to generate confusion and press releases,” he said.
