Great job in recent days for the Mayor Cattaneo groped for washing the indelible stain of the alleged adherence to the 'Ndrangheta of some members of his center-right majority, the subject of ongoing investigations by the District Headquarters Anti-Mafia in Milan . A suspicion that was to advise the Mayor, as proposed by the Democratic Party, to clear the council and municipal boards of companies and institutions connected to the City Council and appointed by him, after confirming or replacing men of his choice on the basis of a clearer picture that would emerge from the investigation. Instead, as always, Cattaneo makes the theater , large advertisements in the press of actions aimed at transparency, which as usual is not followed by concrete action, turning on nothing of meetings with the usual groups and associations "friends" , but concrete actions to restore dignity to the institution fouled the investigation do not see the horizon . Even those in political bunting is implicated in the affair, with profiles and different responsibilities, not appear to move backwards , there are those who resigned with the promise of a triumphant return, some have made a half step back but remained comfortably seated in chairs much more important, there are those who held firmly to his chair pretending nothing and waiting, perhaps, that the storm is over. In short, we want to believe that this is a small hiccup, yet another, almost like an investigation to a small abuse of office. The watchword of the majority is to minimize . Instead, the investigation showed that the DDA the municipal administration headed by Cattaneo was dangerously susceptible to a system of ill repute and business ; against eavesdropping and the evidence published in the press, it is clear that the interests of the 'Ndrangheta have focused on construction, sull'accaparramento of building land covered by the PGT and control of the vote.
Capiamo che il Sindaco Cattaneo faccia di tutto per allontanare da se stesso l’accusa quanto meno di non avere vigilato sui suoi compagni di strada, sui suoi “angeli custodi”, ma il tentativo è maldestro alla luce dell’oggettività dei fatti emersi fino ad ora. Negli ultimi due giorni ha ripetuto centinaia di volte, quasi meccanicamente, che la sua amministrazione è stata del tutto impermeabile sotto l’aspetto amministrativo (excusatio non petita…..). Ed allora perché la DDA ha sequestrato la bozza definitiva del PGT depositata dall’Università di Pavia il 2 luglio u.s.? Perché il Capo Centro della Direzione Investigativa antimafia di Milano dott. Stefano Polo, in una intervista sul quotidiano Il Sole 24 Ore – Lombardia del 21 luglio u.s. dice testualmente, parlando della città di Pavia “ la gente pensa che non ci siano pericoli, almeno per le loro tasche … e invece è un errore, perché qui si parla di finanziamenti che arrivano direttamente dalle casse comunali , cioè dalle casse dei cittadini ” Quali finanziamenti dalle casse comunali???
Il sospetto è pesante e il Sindaco deve fare chiarezza, quella chiarezza che non ha fatto nel corso del consiglio comunale di last Friday, where, beyond general statements against crime (shared), it has put in place any specific steps. The Mayor is doing a bit of doing 'a little! must make clear in its majority, in fact must do some 'cleaning and should usher in a period of great transparency, especially against opposition who also institutionally responsible for monitoring his activities and those of the Executive . Transparency that until now there has been, for example preventing us all the way to discuss the guidelines of the municipal council in PGT and approve the other hand, a procedure objectionable from an administrative standpoint, in the confinement of the Executive (in the light of the facts come to light in recent days, the story takes on disturbing contours, especially in light of the reading of the minutes of that meeting!)
agree without delay the establishment of a Board of Inquiry Board on the facts related to ongoing investigations , presiding over the face by a Board member indicated by the opposition and cooperate, together with the Director-General, the investigation the truth. Only then can it be said that the administration was impervious to the underworld.
Until then, the attempt to minimize the devastating political storm over the last 20 years in Pavia, that is probably tangentopoli, will instead have the opposite effect for him, feeding in public suspicion and speculation.
meantime, the city is not governed as evidenced by the unseemly situation of the suburbs, with little maintenance and little cleaning.
Now the Mayor and the Board for the do have other things to think about. Please do not disturb!
