The Municipality of Ragusa has long since initiated a virtuous process of widespread improvement of the territory to revitalize public spaces and transform them into meeting places.
In particular, the Municipal Administration intends to provide impetus to entrepreneurial activities, to give meaning and life back to the historic center of Ragusa, among the works undertaken, the redevelopment works of the Ragusa station area and specifically also of the freight yard area, where there are already some redevelopment works such as the gardens already partly completed, to bring a vital part of Ragusa back to life and function.
The establishment of economic-social-cultural activities in an area that is being reborn and therefore expands to fruition favors the economy, sociality and promotes healthy ways of living in the community.
In this context, the notice of an expression of interest published on the portal of the Municipality of Ragusa is inserted, aimed both at the concession for use for the purposes of valorization of a property, currently under construction intended for a bar-restaurant, and for the municipal property formerly the State Railways located at the freight yard.
In both cases, the Department of Economic Development intends to start a virtuous process of widespread improvement of the territory to revitalize public spaces and transform them into meeting places by pursuing objectives of collective interest capable of involving and enhancing private interests.
In particular, the Department of Economic Development intends to provide impetus to entrepreneurial activities that primarily serve the resident population.
“It is necessary to share, to work in synergy with the main actors of the economic, cultural and social relaunch of the site, ideas are needed on the nature and purpose of these properties, on their use and their possible use – declares the Councilor for Economic Development Giorgio Massari -. To this end, the Economic Development offices are available for further clarifications.
It is about – continues Giorgio Massari – to carry out important activities not only from an economic point of view but mainly from a social point of view, because only a close connection between the territory, the needs of a community, the return to life of old and historic places through their rebirth and their full enjoyment, can themselves be protagonists of a community that believes and wants to live, investing in our history, in our past, we can choose our future with the tools we have at our disposal”.
The deadline for submitting proposals is August 3, 2024. All information can be viewed on the Ragusa Municipality portal
