They are 9 properties confiscated to organized crime and the mafia that will be returned to the citizens of Liguria. It was approved, through regional decree, the ranking of the tender of the overall value of 600mila euros to finance interventions by local authorities for the enhancement of confiscated real estate assets.
The call for tenders, approved by the Regional Council last June, has selected seven beneficiary municipalities, which will receive contributions for the projects presented. The allocated budget has been entirely used, confirming the interest and commitment of local authorities in redevelopment of the territory.
«The Liguria Region gives back to its citizens spaces that will have a new life at the service of the community – declared the regional councillor for Security Paolo Ripamonti. - This decree confirms the Region's attention towards measures that promote the culture of legality, activate social projects and contribute to the building recovery of the territory with social or institutional purposes. A growing attention, demonstrated by the increase in the budget of this call compared to 2022, when it was equal to 500 thousand euros".
«It is important to underline – added the councilor responsible for Economic Development Alessio Piana - that all the interventions related to the previous call have been completed. This shows that the tool works well, pursuing the objectives of valorization and social reuse of confiscated properties to generate well-being and economic development".
