Out Of Province Parking Tickets

Letter to the President of the Andalusian Andalusian Ms.

PLATFORM LETTER VEGA GRANADA SAVE THE PRESIDENT BOARD OF ANDALUSIA

Mr. President during his stay in Granada did you told the media that fill us with satisfaction. You state that "it will difficult for any plan that fails to comply with sustainable development, environment and future rights of citizens" and will not allow cities to create PGOU cement. We fully agree with you. And the work of our platform is aimed at those goals. But you know that the words become a toast to the sun if not translated into concrete measures and if the leaders or managers having to apply City has highlighted precisely the opposite.

Mr. Chaves, apart from satisfaction, your words fill us with doubts and questions that focus primarily on the Vega of Granada and the metropolitan area of \u200b\u200bGranada. Do you know that the Vega of Granada is a great danger for the thousands of illegal buildings that almost all municipalities allow their municipalities? And you know that we and other groups have denounced, not only has not attacked the illegality but in many cases it has sought to legalize chicanery irregularity? Do you know how easy it would be to discover the buildings illegal POTAUG comparing the plans of the General Plan and the satellite photo? And why not?

Mr. Chavez, but the great danger of the Vega of Granada is brewing now in the edges of it. Do you know that General Plans of Urban Planning (Plan) of the metropolitan municipalities announce massive structures in these places? Only macro announced (Gójar-Dílar, Otura, Las Gabias, Santa Fe, Atarfe, Albolote) associated with the 8 or 10 golf courses, shopping centers, nursing homes, churches, hotels and even involve the re- tens of millions of m2 and the construction of tens of thousands of homes. Mr. Chavez, for instance, you know that in two municipalities with a socialist government; The Atarfe Gabias and have provided in their urban plans to build about 20,000 homes and 21,000 the first second? Does not she know you that in many metropolitan municipalities are also plans mammoth? If all these plans go forward mobility of the population and economic activities that require better infrastructure linking the capital and it has to pass inevitablemnente by Vega. Strangulation of the valley would be a step is now and live with traffic jams and roads collapsed. If these plans come what will happen?

Mr Chavez, you said it "will not allow you to create a Almuñécar PGOU cement." We welcome his statement, the support. But why would cement Almuñécar with the General Plan and not announcing Atarfe o Gabias? Do not you think that the design of the metropolitan area of \u200b\u200bGranada, with a half dead POTAUG begets a monster insosteniblidad and chaos?


Mr. Chaves, we believe that the problem of the metropolitan area of \u200b\u200bGranada is not the governing PSOE or PP. The real problem is that the metropolitan area is governed by planning agreements. And they do not understand sustainability, environment, cities with ethics and aesthetics, or past or future, or rights of future generations. Although funding councils, and we fear that something else, not solve the problems of citizens.

Mr. Chaves, we will allow you to do a question that haunts us from the head and makes us wonder. You who have many years ruling Andalucía how have allowed the concrete force 5 hurricane and the brick has plagued our metropolitan area, our coastline and our community for so long?

Mr. Chaves, despite our doubts, since our platform we work with you to get a design of our land that respects sustainable development, environment and rights future citizens, but for this we want to ask about the steps his government plans to realize their words. And as Secretary General of the PSOE in Andalusia, not wanting to interfere in your organization, we would like to ask what will to ensure that the new municipal governments to carry that label their party touts you as many of those who re-submitted to the elections have done just the opposite.

At the same time we want to make a series of proposals to see our resolve to work with you. These are

1 - against approval of any PGOU in the metropolitan area of \u200b\u200bGranada until you have a decree on golf courses and very clear criteria for rational growth sustainable municipalities. The law must never be allowed to multiply growth in the urban area for two or three times the current.

2 - That PGOU be addressed from a subregional perspective. When viewed as a whole is when the unsustainability is generated all around the territory.

3 - That the Provincial Planning Commission to change its composition and entering rationality and sustainability criteria. So far it has been a bad referee has blown for ever for the General Plan but they destroyed much of the territory and the environment.

4 - Cease or exercise its influence to stop the perpetrators of the Environment of the Andalusian and the Provincial in the province of Granada for being outstanding leaders in their municipalities, apart from not care environment, have contributed to the destruction of millions of square meters of plain. They should put those charges in front of people who have excelled in the defense of the environment.

5 - As Secretary General of the PSOE-only expose him as a suggestion to get to realize their words in Granada- that although the so-called "clan of Armilla" were the gurus of the philosophy of brick in the metropolitan area, can not forget that many of its mayors have been those outstanding students. We believe that relay would have to study his party in the municipalities to put forward people who are more sensitive to the environment.

6 - must be addressed once and for all the municipalities to finance non-real estate speculation hostages.

7 - Andalusian Parliament should adopt as a protection of the Vega of Granada, ranging from the metropolitan area to Loja.

8 - should put in place a plan for invigorating the Vega as much consensus as possible for the Vega in a comprehensive and sustainable is a source of wealth and jobs. There is already a base document approved by the Provincial Council of Granada at the request of the Commission de la Vega.

9 - Finally. We call for citizen participation. The groups are expressing concerns, critical consciousness they are citizens. However, local councils and other agencies ignore us and do not give us any involvement. We offer the example of Public Works in January asked the report of the Government of Andalusia on the park Armilla Nevada and dates we do not yet have provided.

Mr. Chaves, if you're willing to make a sustainable Andalusia, that does not smell so much to cement, which preserve the rights of future generations, you tell us.

Building Inspection Checklist

: you close the tap! Coordination between groups

Post

la Vega

This letter you will read below has been sent by the group Blas García Escape to the Country . It was published on 04/09/1906 mutilation. Bias is not wrong when he says, "sure in Postal de la Vega did not make cuts." This summer ... accurate reflection ... and fully published.

Ms. Junta de Andalucía: Close your faucet!

Blas García Peralta. Dílar (Granada).

This summer, like many others where water is scarce, our authorities we thoroughly with advertising campaigns on the need to save: "Turn off the tap while soaping" , and about the importance of our collaboration in the conservation of natural resources: "The whole is what counts ." And this summer we have the level of our reservoirs lower in the last ten years. However, again increased the drinking water throughout the state, besides being Andalusia has a higher per capita spending.

This summer, like everyone, has again broken the record of power consumption in Andalusia, thanks to air conditioning. NASA released its estimates of temperature increase for the next twenty years. European scientists say that summers are getting longer and that Spain is the country worst hit by climate change . Another joy to Andalusia.

This summer, Greenpeace published a report that places the autonomous community Andalusia as more miles of coastline built - or destroyed, depending how you look, and with a greater disregard for compliance the law (more than 70,000 illegal buildings on the coast).

This summer, advertising on the Costa del Sol, "forgiveness, Costa del Golf" does not say anything that "Luxury Apartments in front of Golf" -in English clear. Before, it was said in front of the beach, but as in the Andalusian coast beach is literally no which to build anything, have invented these "green seas" to continue to build luxury estates for foreigners. How do you maintain this splendid greenery in summer, in the middle of drought and semi-desert area? With purified water and rain? Officially there are 92 golf courses Andalucía and 86 more under construction or processing. In the project, more than 200. Each with its luxury residential development regulations, naturally. "Overall, on the other golf course more or less, with 2000 flats ... nothing happens. " But ... the whole is what counts" .

This summer, the Bank of Spain reports that over 60% of the cash in circulation is composed of 500 euro. Where do we circulate?

This summer, real estate speculation, the outrageous reclassification of agricultural land and housing prices have continued to grow. Not built to meet the needs of population is only a speculative business whose benefit is based on the abuse of public resources, administrative corruption and laundering money massive black.

As an example worth of my people, Dílar (Granada) with 1500 inhabitants, where there is projected a pitch of 3200 luxury apartments, two golf courses and a "theme park", but the neighbors never can access these surreal housing prices.

Is our administrative manager are not aware of this data? Do not read newspapers or watch television? Our politicians, left or right, (there are no more color than the ticket 500), is showing a shocking irresponsibility that is causing irreversible effects on our land, a historical scale.

Ms. Andalusia, as you responsible and shut off the golf course, from luxury estates, the pillaging of aquifers, the rezoning without justification, of administrative corruption and speculation mafia. It is your responsibility. You have no moral authority to ask citizens to turn off the tap while yours is wasting all pressures, as the whole is what counts. "

NEW AREAS OF VEGA

It is now up to plain areas of Granada, Huétor Vega, Monachil , La Zubia, Ogíjares, Gójar. Otura. The you can see in the blog (address above) of Save the Vega. You must bear in mind that it is a document of 1998 and there have been many changes. What do you think if actualizáis us with your comment will?

- AREA 11: Beira-GENIL interfluvial in the floodplain

- AREA 12: PERIMETER AREAS OF SOUTHEAST TRAYS

- AREA 13: AREA SOUTHEAST the alveolus MEDULLARY

- AREA 14: THE RING BETWEEN ENVIRONMENT AND OTURA OGIJARES .

- AREA 15: EXTREME SOUTHERN (OGIJARES-Gojar-OTURA)

AREA 11: Beira-GENIL interfluvial in the floodplain

Vega Unit clearly confined between the rivers Genil and Beiro and the Granada ring, well irrigated from the ditch Gorda fertile, teeming with trees and hedges, and therefore the most value-productive environment. The western sector of the same shows clear analogies with the two previous areas, but the area closest to the city of Granada, the traditional "orchards" of the suburbs entered a sharp distinction, in some cases farm dedication to vegetables, in others, the most important, having acquired the clear role of home gardens, with part-time work and for personal use, among dozens of thatched cottages rejuvenated and new residential buildings in extensive occupation. The plant component consists of many fruit and ornamental trees among the most common crops.

These two distinct production and environmental conditions have an effect on the landscape, which is also the paths forming units, the orchards and the camauro environment. This is an interesting landscape highly consumed, from the Beltway and from the right bank of the river Genil, highlighting some reinforcing elements, if the primers of water adjacent to the turret mill and many of the orchards of the environment and other disruptive, especially landfills located on the banks of the Genil.

There is no doubt that the unit is heavily stressed from the city of Granada, especially in the area of \u200b\u200btraditional orchards, where there are all kinds of urban uses and on the road linking the sale of the Olive with facilities CIDA (Aclaración. Today it is called CIFA, Centre for Agricultural Research and Training).

Excessive pressure on the field recommend limiting urban growth around the south-western front of Granada, but apart from these caveats urban, it is proposed specific treatment, while maintaining the agricultural character and traditional orchards in the area closest to Granada (1 km. approx) and improving interior roads. In turn, specific actions sealing gravel and green curtains treatment in urban sites with expectations.

AREA 12: PERIMETER AREAS OF SOUTHEAST TRAYS

very incised area by major road infrastructure and urbanization, but where they are kept largely functional components and remain fertile agricultural soils. However, the rating drops one degree for different reasons and not always consistent: colluvium outcrops, topographic irregularities, lack of competition, seasonal water-use, etc. In this area is also characteristic mix of activities.

two units affects the landscape, the eastern and the large alveolus Armilla de la Vega southeast, with frequent impacts (eg, location and other non-scrapping Granada farm road-Ogíjares) while very high visual consumption of dissonant elements or bad fascia. The end result is the substantial reduction of attributes own positive landscape of adjacent units.

data show an intense tightening on the roads that connect with Huétor Granada Vega, on the one hand, and Ogíjares other, which frequently arise implementations of industrial, residential or other non-agricultural uses. It is also significant, the trend transforming the environment of the CN-323, in the Granada ring road section as further south.

In order to preserve the irrigated area is proposed to limit the growth of the urban system on the edge of the conurbation Granada Vega and river Huétor Monachil. Instead, given the level of transformation, and the conditions of location, is proposed to integrate into the urban system in the area Zute Road, although extensive occupation, the cone formed by the junction of highways (Ring and Round south), which projects the construction of the Campus Health Sciences, and the Vega sector Ogíjares.-Armilla, from Polygon Technology and the Beltway. treatment is also suggested "soft" (gardens) in the field of plain Ogíjares-La Zubia.

AREA 13: AREA SOUTHEAST the alveolus MEDULLARY

vega Estense confined area between the foothills southeast, the highways south Circunvalanción and Ronda and Granada-Armilla urban continuum-Ogíjares. Part of the traditional irrigation does not present any exceptional negative factor on the fringe of the Genil. By contrast, the mixture of arable crops, fruit and olive trees between a fragmented plot where trees abound after hedges and borders, dense networks of roads and water, etc., evoke an agricultural landscape type bocage or small fields more or less closed, together to moisture provided by the frequent fogs investment and stagnation with topographic edges is a very high propiciiador environmental assessment. At some level, it offers a green island effect Ferz between browning and dry land adjacent.,

This combination of landscape variables has its corollary, which results in a well-framed single scenario curtains by Southeast, where it is visible in its entirety (observatories Conejerasm access to, the Collado del Contadero, Green Summit and road access, etc.), or from ground height (local roads that cross) or a few meters above it (Ronda Sur), manifesting the character of sub-visual self-contained within the Great Basin of the Vega as a whole. The scenario is further illustrated by some interesting parts, such as certain traditional cottages (from Walnut, the Blessed), which stand in a cloud of scattered buildings of various types. But do not go unnoticed visual impacts represented by the huge open pits at the base of the cone of La Zubia, southern edge of the area, or for the many non-farm buildings dotted all over the area, lessening the value of the intrinsic landscape.

a moderate tightening is generally appreciated, but is strong in some road corridors and parts, as in the farm environment and the Carballos Franqueira-Barriochuelo High

As

response to the exceptional production and environmental conditions and pretty good from the point of the landscape, are accurate certain planning restrictions. Thus, we propose the creation of an urban boundary in front Monachil suburbs between Barrio and La Zubia. Include also the prohibition of non-rural uses which was clearly harmful. In the field of action treatments are proposed to retrieve the image point land, especially on the edges of the road to La Zubia, the enhancement of roads, such as fishermen or going from house to house Muharra Marchioness, impostaje Perimeter Franqueira the fragmentation of farm, and environmental improvement and landscaping along the river Monachil currently heavily degraded in the stretch that runs through this area.

AREA 14: THE RING BETWEEN ENVIRONMENT AND OTURA OGIJARES

narrow strip with difficult operating conditions for the barrier effect of the highway (CN-323). Highlight the mixture of buildings and subsistence or under use, not lacking abandoned sites.

non-agricultural uses scattered among arable crops in the plains and olive groves in the topographic projections make a scene so transformed and consumed from the highway, creating a chaotic landscape.

Area

transformed and ultimately very stressed by urban-relational system, especially in small bags of soil confined west of the highway.

The low production and environmental assessment and landscape make unnecessary occurrence strict conservation measures, it is recommended the consideration of most of the area as a place connected to the system urban, except along the river in its appendix Dílar East, which should develop regeneration treatments and on the edge of the hill where Ogíjares sits along the Royal canal.

AREA 15: SOUTH END (OGIJARES-Gojar-OTURA)

Southern Alveolo Vega shares many of the traditional production and environmental conditions in other portions of the irrigated plain, but certain aspects are significantly worsened, as the excessive fragmentation of ownership and the plot and lack of water in low water from the diversion ditches Dilar River, in whose bed, moreover, is easy to find uncontrolled landfills. Still, the many olive groves and fruit farms between crops, especially in the easternmost (right bank) introduced geosystem biodiversity in agriculture and improve the balance of humidity and can be considered ultimately as highly valuable.

The landscape that emerges is very confined between the hills to the south, the conurbations and the ring road can be seen almost in its entirety from this infrastructure. The some uneven ground, which has necessitated the formation of large terraces, and tree make precise mass incursion into the room to apprehend him, becoming difficult to access certain places especially interesting, as the sudden lightening of the river between clusters Dílar and calcarenites on the diagonal of Otura-Gójar or traditional buildings of historical and symbolic (mills, cottages, etc.) that are located next to the river just before opening to the great plain. But they are also noticeable impacts of all kinds occur in urban fronts, in many of the roads crossing the area and in the course of Dílar. However, in the heart of the unit can well appreciate a good general condition of this promiscuous traditional agriculture.

Many of the mentioned effects are due to the stress from the edge of the area, precisely because of a tendency to expand in oil stain the nuclei that nearly wrapped around its perimeter.

It is proposed, limiting growth in the southwestern edge of Ogíjares -Gójar and around the front-Dílar Otura estates. In turn, the conservation and, if possible, improved rich network of rural roads, and specific treatment of environmental improvement along the river Dílar and cornice of the Royal canal Ogíjares. It is also recommended monitoring the process of occupation of the valley with buildings Otura pseudoagrícolas, subdivisions and fences. Finally, interest would be the rehabilitation of the mills and farms in the area.

Sample Cover Letter Dental Office Manager



Reflection ESCAPE class members at the proposal for provincial coordination in defense of the

NEED TO TRY TO HAVE MORE POWER

Do we force to maintain that coordination?

We'll have to try to find out. And we need try to get more strength. If we all accept as their own struggles of other groups, and collaborate in the best of our ability all we will come out. And above all, give an image of being much stronger than now in the media, and against the institutions and political powers.

An example: coordinating letters to newspapers in time, so that it gives the impression that there are many people in many places, concerned with a particular topical issue. It occurs to me for the regulation of the golf courses now under development.

Another example: levels of support for an issue of a collective, with the participation of all components.

What can your group, you as a person?

believe that people Dílar and Gójar (ESCAPE), would be willing to participate in joint actions with other groups. (Signatures, exhibitions, demonstrations ,...) are not many, but we are growing! Some of us work from the point of view, to search for documents in the network, ... And I can teach those interested. They also make decent photos with our digital clique.

How far can we go?

There is a serious time constraint : Work, family, home ... and try to coordinate our collective. But something can be done.
One idea: we should be trying to coordinate people with the minimum number of possible face meetings. Using email, a forum, web, ... And decentralize work.

do the proposals set out what is viable?

must start some concrete things and see how they operate. Low to high. Without strain.

What I need to provide me, my group to work better, to take up the fight?

We find it interesting to create a coaching . In our case, need advice on legal issues : contents of applicable laws, procedures, ...

We found it very interesting to try to summarize what LOUA, for example.
could have an e-mail addresses for consultations on specific issues. The topics of interest to other people, can be hung on a Web query. Perhaps one could apply some sort of question-answer scheme-(FAQ) - Answers to frequently asked questions, directing queries thematically.

Another idea, which we have said on other occasions, creating a "red alert" on :

- Official Publications (BOP, BOJA ,...) related to topics of interest to all groups. (Example: open time for comment, a General Plan is amended, there is a policy change in a particular area that we found ,...) That's always late.

- "Attacks" to observe (illegal buildings, trees felled, discharges ,...) of interest to other groups.

- Press Releases , or otherwise, related to specific issues affecting other groups.

- initiatives related or similar we know elsewhere.

all collaborate, many eyes watching, and we had information that might be of interest to the group concerned.

What is lacking in the proposed coordination?

We try to list all the strategies and actions in which we benefit from being coordinated. Perhaps this makes us aware of it interesting for all groups.

For example:

- Sign claims. We all signed the arguments proposed by a group.

- collect signatures. All around us collect signatures for a cause of another group.

- disseminate information and problems of a particular group from other people's "conscience."

- concentrations Support other collective.

- Skip useful contacts. (Specialist in a specific technical issue, in an official body in a media ,...)

How can we pass this new culture of the area?

have to gain access to the media. We must take action to impact information, with our limited means. (This is the advertising strategy of Greenpeace, and it will cojonudas). Within our means, certainly striking things happen to us without much infrastructure.
