Defending the territory: a little local fight

Hi everybody, in this post we can write about anything, so I’m going to write about a conflict that is happening nowadays near my house. It’s about a problem between the citizens and the local government that want to use a green area that used to be use by the people of the sector. So the people claims that the green area belongs to them, because they have the ownership, by the municipality says that the paper of property it isn’t valid, so they can do whatever they want, in this case they want to give the terrain to an institution for the realization of a project that wants to make social dwellings, very low cost houses in a place that is in social risk, this can significant more problems because that space is the only green area that the neighbour have, and the density of population is high today, and it will be more high if the build more social dwelling. The place is about 5000m2 so isn’t a big big place anyway for a super big project, the people says that the local government was bought by the estate agency. At the moment the people are organizing local reunions informing more and more citizens about the problem the last Saturday were a reunion for talk about that and present the case to the community, they are looking for legal resources and the support of political institutions and anything that can help to defend their territory. I hope the people wins this, because they really need spaces for recreation, moreover in a place exposed at social risk is really necessary to have this kind of places that invite to the cohabitation of people.
