TRENT. “So far about the house only promises came from the provincial council. If the provincial government has really taken note of the housing emergency in Trentino and has made it one of the priorities of this legislature, then we expect concrete actions. Starting with adequate resources already with the next budget adjustment, for the construction of new social housing and the renovation of too many Itea apartments currently vacant”.
In short, the unions don’t tell them. At the end of the meeting of the provincial table on housing policies, Cgil, Cisl and Uil summarize their disappointment in this way and underline what was brought to the attention of councilor Simone Marchiori. “The further allocation of resources of 1.5 million euros intended for the renovation of the Itea houses which today are in a condition to be made available It’s a step forward, but not enough”, they comment Manuela Faggioni, Michele Bezzi And Walter Alotti. “Everything allocated, in fact, it allows only a partial recovery of the thousand vacant homeswhich instead serve as fresh air for the many families on the waiting list and without a home.”
And strengthened by this awareness, the three trade unionists also urged the councilor on the creation of new public housing. “The explosion of requests for rental support is yet another alarm bell of the housing emergency. We ask for an extraordinary ten-year plan to create new social rent housing and we expect an initial commitment with the next budget adjustment”. At the same time the request for was put back on the table index the Icef to inflation for access to Itea homes.
CGIL, CISL and UIL have also placed emphasis on short-term tourist accommodation, urging Piazza Dante to implement a tax strategy that incentivizes residential rentals. “In many tourist locations, workers they have extreme difficulty finding an apartment. It’s time to change the rules”.
Alongside public housing, it is necessary to support the middle class and young couples. Hence the request to finance the social housing fund again. At the same time the three confederations returned to the request to activate the fund for innocent arrears and urged the establishment of a guarantee fund for private rentals with guarantees from institutions and private individuals for the project Location.
Evictions were also discussed at the meeting. “Many Itea tenants have found themselves unable to pay condominium expenses with the explosion of energy costs and today risk being left homeless. We appreciate the proposal for a huge debt installment plan, but it is not enough on its own. We want the Province to undertake the commitment to verify whether there have been irregularities in the supply contracts with Comat and, if so, for Itea to assume the responsibilities it deserves”.
Finally the political question. CGIL, CISL and UILconsistently with what has been maintained to date, have asked councilor Marchiori to turn the page on the access requirements to Itea homes, overcoming the unconstitutional ten-year criterion to re-establish fair and non-discriminatory requirements.
