The Government team of the Cádiz City Council has committed to the families who are currently illegally occupying 20 Feduchy Street to mediate with the property of the farm, in order to find formulas that allow “to regulate in some way a situation that it is actually taking place ”.
It so happens that this empty property was practically rehabilitated when its promoters were seized, and there is currently a mortgage on the Company for the Management of Assets from Bank Restructuring (Sareb, known as the ‘bad bank’).
The Councilor for Housing and president of the municipal company Procasa, Eva Tubío, has held a meeting with representatives of the twelve families that live in this property in the center of the capital “in an organized way and with a good atmosphere of coexistence”, without the problems caused in the area by the protagonists of a previous occupation of the same farm, who provoked police interventions due to altercations and matters related to drug trafficking.
The representatives of the occupants have explained to the leftist mayor how they arrived at the property and organized themselves to carry out reforms and clean it up, underlining the common rules and a good atmosphere of coexistence that they have established. These are humble families with limited resources, some of them with minors in their care.
In a statement sent to DIARIO Bahía de Cádiz, the City Council reiterates that it has committed to these families to “try to help as much as possible”, starting by contacting the property owner.
In this way, they will mediate to see if there is the possibility of establishing some type of negotiation that would allow these families to stay there, either through a contract or some other formula. Ultimately, it is about trying to find solutions for people who suffer from a housing problem “and who can regulate with the property a situation that is actually occurring”.
Tubío recalled at this point that, recently, Sareb agreed with the central government to mobilize up to 15,000 social housing units by assigning them to local and regional entities so that they can dedicate them to affordable rents for vulnerable people with limited income, or placed directly by said company at the disposal of people in vulnerable situations through the signing of affordable lease contracts.
