The 34 meter telephone antenna that is about to be built in San Lazzaro near the school continues to cause discussion. A facility that is causing concern among residents, teachers and parents of schoolchildren.
THE SURPRISE OF KATIA TARASCONI
The mayor Katia Tarasconi explains that she learned of the purpose of the construction site, namely a new telephone system, when her fellow citizens also found out, that she was convinced that “the construction site was for district heating works”, and admits that, with these conditions (regulations), that “we have no tools to block the work”, adding that “Europe has moved in the direction of liberalizing the antennas”. “I don’t have super powers,” she wrote on a neighborhood chat, replying to residents.
THE AMAZING OF GIORGIO BRAGHIERI
Statements that aroused amazement in Giorgio Braghieri, president of the Pia Alberoni association, owner of the land on which the antenna will be built. “The request was made public by a note on the online noticeboard – explains Braghieri. The opinions of ASL and Arpae were given and the services conference followed”. And he states that “the technical offices were aware of the practice”.
THE RESIDENTS’ PROTEST
Meanwhile, the protests of the residents are growing, and for now they have produced a controversial leaflet entitled “Raise your antennas!”) and dozens of online comments highly critical of the plant.
THE DOUBTS OF THE MINORITY
Also critical are the representatives of the Fratelli d’Italia group in the city council who ask whether the Municipality has attempted to find alternative solutions, also “considering the size of the area and the possibility of locating the antenna at the opposite end, not at close to homes and schools”.
