PESARO – «Too many sports and teams at Pala Campanara, logistics management is complicated. We bring the three Serie B basketball teams to the Scavolini Auditorium. They can coexist with culture and events, we have already studied a monthly program. And we want to revolutionize the Union of Municipalities, the traffic police all under Pesaro again.” Councilor Enzo Belloni and his Una Città in Comune list makes it clear that in the next mandate, if obviously the centre-left coalition wins, the majority will have anything but a spectator role.
He made it clear recently, keeping Biancani on tenterhooks until the end, before joining the team. And you underlined this yesterday, in a live streaming conference, indicating programmatic pillars to carry forward and implement in terms of sport, safety, greenery and waste. And also in words, aiming to assert a greater political weight than the current one, clearly after having given the electorate a voice.
Three councilors
«We are working to win over 4000 preferences and elect three city councillors. We want to have the strength within the majority to have an important impact. We worked well, we put our face to it and we were operational for everyone. We want to have conditions after the vote that allow us to assert our thoughts and will.” We start from sport, with the spotlight on the Scavolini Auditorium compared to the current situation of the Pala Campanara where Italservice, Megabox, Bluvolley, Loreto (last night game 2 of the semi-final against Matelica), Bramante, Pisaurum play. Five-a-side football, volleyball, basketball, everyone in there. «In Pavilion D sometimes the baskets are moved up to three times a day» he explains. The way out, which in reality for the Belloni list represents a return to the past, a tradition to be dusted off, is to move the three Serie B basketball teams, all to the Scavolini Auditorium, inaugurated last February 29th. How to do? «The palas can be used for two weekends a month, from September to May, providing a calendar to the basketball federation, and making it coexist with cultural events and other initiatives. I believe that bringing basketball to the old palas (Vuelle in Serie A2 will continue to play at home at the Vitrifrigo Arena, ed.) can be an important signal for all of Pesaro sports.” Another topic mentioned is that of the Union of Municipalities. «This union must be revolutionized, to have a different and better service. We must bring more traffic policemen back to Pesaro by reviewing the agreement on municipal police, to guarantee improvements from a safety point of view.” The programmatic issues are not over. There is the environmental combination of water and waste. On the first front, «we need to lay the foundations by commissioning a study to understand what is the best way to solve the problem of the water crisis in our area. We would like to think about more invasions, small, medium or large.”
The other themes
Then waste: «Landfill yes, landfill no, waste-to-energy plant. Whatever decision is made will be strategic for our territory. But if we don’t make a decision regarding waste, in a few years we will find ourselves with a tripled bill, because taking waste out of the region is not free. Mms profits? They are used to cover the costs of nursery schools, maintenance, and are used for current expenses. I prefer to give that money to citizens who need primary services, rather than reduce my bill by 5 euros.” The picture of this programmatic overview is completed by the greenery (“I would like it to return under municipal management”), and the neighborhoods (“More attention to those places which in recent years have perhaps been neglected more than others”).
