Serious complaints about encroachments on public space in the center of Thessaloniki
Serious complaints were made by the Association of Friends of the Historic Center. Specifically, the complaints of the works for the creation of a new dining area on P. Patron Germanou, for which written questions have been formulated in relation to whether there are urban planning violations and work permit in a SHARED area, and permission for cutting plants in the flowerbed.
Among the complaints that are deleted is the removal from a common area of a bench, for which the municipality of Thessaloniki replied that “THE UPPER LIVING ROOM WAS REMOVED FROM THE SERVICES OF THE MUNICIPALITY
Among other things, for the needs of the company, according to the Association, two buildings have been united, with the demolition of the intermediate wall of a building that is characterized as a new monument and with obvious questions about its alteration.
The building was declared protected in 1999 by the Government Gazette.
In a photo of those who published it, the medal has been pasted with the curtain on the flower bed, the reason is a stable construction.
Parking is almost impossible, as the door can not be opened normally and there is no possibility to cross the sidewalk
In a post by the Association, he points out that:
“The inadequate Business Service Directorate and the Department of Auditors and Subscribers have a great responsibility for the downstream of the city. Autrement dit did not have to abuse a city to be governed! ”
The municipal councilor Spyros Bougias also took a position on the issue with his post on social.
THE URBAN PLANNING ABUSE AND TIGHTENESS OF THE CITY
Thessaloniki, a city of females, is often the victim of abuse by some aggressive catering entrepreneurs who take advantage of the indifference and tolerance of the Directorate of Urban Planning and the Administration of the Municipality. He complains in all tones and with unwavering evidence to the very active Association of Friends of the Historic Center, which constantly monitors and reveals such actions.
The last episode, which began if you remember with the “disappearance” of the stone bench removed by the Municipality itself from the sidewalk of Paleon Patron Germanou Street, continued and ends with the provocative occupation of the minimal public space and obvious multi-building violations, despite the intense dimensions. of the neighborhoods.
The photographs presented by the Association, clearly show the suffocating blockade of the entire area with the closed glass curtains, the occupation of a large part of the sidewalk and the quotation of the ground floor of the adjacent neoclassical building which is an excellent monument of modern architecture.
The poetry of the public space in Thessaloniki can no longer continue, which is suffocating and suffocatingly unprotected in the unbearable pressure and the constant delinquency. The active citizens who have strongly defended it in the past, must mobilize again and put an end to this abusive urban behavior.
