Protests against the BCC project in Donostia continue. As Irutxuloko hitza, called by Ulia Auzo Elkartea, gathered on Friday between 50 and 100 citizens in the demonstration that preceded the Okendo House of Culture and protested in the field of works, the Park yes, Culinary no! shout. In fact, last week began to transform the area of the parks of Manteo and Zemoria, the only green area in Gros, leaving the whole green area without trees.

This project began with intense anger among the residents. SOS Manteo explains that “without any guarantee” the works related to the vegetation of the plot and adjacent areas have been launched, and accuses the City of San Sebastian of not complying with this, as Amenabar’s representatives stated that “cutting trees was outside the scope of the works”. Over 7,000 signatures have already been gathered against the project.

The members of the association stress that they will not resign until the park is recovered: “The issue of the BCC of Manteo goes beyond the loss of a green area essential for the neighborhood. It is also a matter of city model, public management and governance”.
