The Region sells the former Onc building to the Municipality and halves the price

The Lazio Region sells to the Municipality of Aprilia a portion of a building dating back to the foundation of the city, once owned by the Opera Nazionale Combattenti and then passed to the Region, which has long included it in the list of “available properties for residential use ” and therefore included “in the list of real estate subject to alienation”, therefore to be sold. This is the first floor of the building in via degli Oleandri 14, approximately 233 square meters in size, which could be used for institutional or social activities.

It was the city council that approved the purchase proposal to be forwarded to the Region in January 2023, given that there were private individuals intending to purchase the structure. However, the Municipality was able to exercise a right of pre-emption over private individuals, also enjoying a 50 percent discount on the purchase price. According to the assessment made by the revenue agency, that portion of the building, given its central location, could be put up for sale at around 308 thousand euros. Thanks to the opportunity offered by the relevant legislation, the Municipality will be able to conclude the purchase at half the price, 154 thousand euros.

With the 2023 council resolution, presented by the then heritage councilor Luana Caporaso, the Municipality declared its intention to allocate the property in via degli Oleandri 14 to institutional activity and therefore to “a venue for social, cultural and recreational activities available of the entire community, allowing the creation of an aggregation center”.

“The request to purchase the real estate unit forwarded by the Municipality of Aprilia – we read on the regional deed authorizing the sale – appears to be aimed at institutional purposes and therefore compliant with what is established by the regional regulation on alienation in favor of public bodies , of the assets of the available regional heritage”. The Region, given the request of the Municipality of Aprilia on 3 April, also authorized the payment of the property in ten annual instalments. The only obligation of the Municipality is not to resell the building.

What will the municipal administration do with it now? There is no real project, but certainly a space a few tens of meters from the Municipality headquarters could be used, for example, as the headquarters of the Pro Loco, or as an “association house”. The administration will decide this.
