The popular group announced yesterday that it will ask the municipal government for explanations of the reason why the City Council’s inspections of the El Micalet theater to check if the deficiencies have been corrected “they have not been done during working hours in the mornings or afternoons. Most of them have been at night or even at dawn “, said sources of this formation.
“The purpose of these visits by the Local Police is to find out if the deficiencies had been corrected, since the Micalet theater is without a license for them and they have been dragging on since 2017,” they pointed out. The PP denounced that the municipal government of «Compromís and the PSPV renewed an agreement with the Societat El Micalet, organizers of the January parade of Las Magas, for 25,000 euros to carry out municipal activities in an auditorium that has been fined by the Consistory itself for not having an activity permit ».
The opposition groups have in their possession a fire prevention report for the month of June in which the technicians “warn of serious deficiencies that have not been corrected since 2017. Therefore, Mayor Ribó finances municipal activities to an entity that does not hide his inclination towards Catalan separatism, activities many of them aimed at children, in an area that the City Council itself has sanctioned for lacking an activity license and that presents security and isolation problems on the stage of the auditorium that has capacity for 400 spectators ».
The Consistory issued an unfavorable report for the activity of the room, although the entity receives municipal aid

The popular ones ask that the safety of the users of this enclosure be guaranteed. “This society cannot receive municipal aid if there is no certification from the technicians that everything is correct and there is no risk for the users of the facilities and for the spectators in the development of their activities.”
According to the documentation, from the beginning of June to August of last year, the Local Police carried out almost twenty inspections. “All of them were made around midnight or even at dawn, so logically the room was closed. We do not understand the criteria taken or any of this, so we will demand that they clarify it immediately, “they stressed.
In all cases and without exception, the agents mark where the theater was closed. “This follow-up is sent to verify that said establishment remains closed and without activity,” they indicate in the bulletins.
In September of last year, one of the 13 grants directed to the cultural halls due to the effect of the pandemic was for the aforementioned society, which took 27,586 euros of the total of 350,000 euros delivered by the municipal government throughout the city.
At the time, the same municipal group denounced that it was “warned of closure by the municipal government itself, due to deficiencies in its activity license, and has given it a period of 15 days to correct them. The changes had to be made especially in terms of security and activities, having an unfavorable report.
