The request for declaration of Totana as "Free Township Evictions" is based on the right of every human being to have a decent home, according to reports from the totanero PSOE in a statement.
This right is based on a set of items that require local, regional and state administrations to make it effective.
One of the most serious consequences of the current economic situation is that many families can not meet compliance obligations for payment of the rents or, in the case of loans or mortgages held to purchase their homes, being doubly hit by this financial crisis, losing not only their jobs but also their homes.
In this situation Local Government can not remain indifferent and should take any actions necessary to give protection to citizens, in order to give effect to the right to housing, which often forces the government to restore balance consumer relations between financial institutions and citizenship.
In this regard, the City of Totana can not remain oblivious to the drama that affects many of its neighbors and must act on individuals and families threatened with eviction.
The socialist city spokesman Andrés García has proposed that the City of Totana municipal commit to undertake measures in order to guarantee the right to housing for the population and address the housing emergency.
It also proposes that water supplies, electricity and gas are commodities that must be guaranteed for all families.
Consequently, the Municipal Corporation shall establish regulations to ensure that families at risk of social exclusion have the previously mentioned minimal supplies.
In addition García Cánovas requires that a Municipal Housing Plan that includes the elaboration and properly regulate building measures to meet the demands of emergency housing and create a park and a private public housing under a social rent, to rehouse people and families evicted.
There can be no people in the street while there are empty houses.
Socialist spokesman also proposes to create a record of people affected by situations of potential evictions and living under the poverty line in order to perform reliable monitoring of its shortcomings.
Finally, the socialist group proposes that the corporation totanera resist any eviction from home you are living under and review the protocols of social services in cases of eviction.
