«Non-party controls, non-existent measures and abandoned populations»: this is the complaint of the regional secretary of the Democratic Party of Umbria, Tommaso Bori, of the group leader in the regional council of the Dems, Simona Meloni, of the group leader of the Democratic Party in the Municipality of Umbertide, Filippo Corbucci and Sarah Bistocchi, Pd group leader in the Municipality of Perugia, regarding the earthquake in upper Umbria in March 2023.
Earthquake in Umbertide and Perugia «Everything still needs to be done – says Bori in a note – because our requests, collected in a motion approved unanimously on March 5th, have been evaded and the citizens have been taken for a ride. He was told that damage assessments would be launched, which have not started. There are no dedicated funds, there is no inclusion in the crater. For this reason we will return to bring it to the municipal and regional councils to ask for the answers that the citizens affected by the earthquake deserve.” From the regional council it is also Meloni who says that «despite the unanimity, nothing has happened – said the group leader at Palazzo Cesaroni – we had made specific requests in promoting a listening point to support the population affected by the earthquake but it was not implemented . All this goes hand in hand with the tightening of the Superbonus wanted by the Government, which has seriously compromised the recovery of the territory.”
Three questions from the Democratic Party «We will present an act to ask for respect from citizens and an account of what has been done. The commitments of the electoral campaign spoke clearly and instead they revealed themselves to be what they were, that is, mere propaganda”, reiterated Bori and Meloni, announcing a question in the regional council to ask “what actions have been undertaken towards the national government to maintain faith in the points of our motion of March 5, approved unanimously.” A similar question, to ask for information on the situation, will also be presented in Perugia and Umbertide.
«Everything stops» He then asks whether it is not considered “useful to work towards the government so that the reference to Legislative Decree 189 and Law 229 of 2016, the one that established the Norcia crater, with regards to reconnaissance, can by analogy also be extended to private planning to reconstruct homes, also including professional assignments for the planning of the recovery of private buildings among the expenses that will be reimbursed. If it is not deemed appropriate to open a table with the national government and local credit institutions in order to find an agreement that allows citizens who have suffered damage to receive loans from banks to pay for the reconstruction work which will then reimburse them state through the tax credit”.
