ROMANO CANAVESE

The authorization process for the new Gigafactory destined for the production of Italvolt lithium batteries for motor vehicles, in the former Olivetti district of Scarmagno, and the doubling of the private building practices produced by the various state incentives, worry Mayor Oscarino Ferrero for the maintenance of the municipal technical service. Who made it known that he had had in this regard, together with the head of the municipal technical service Davide Giancola, on Monday 15 and Thursday 18 November, the last two meetings with the Pininfarina technicians, Italvolt designers, who informally presented the contents of the preliminary project of the new Scarmagno settlement. “In these technical meetings – highlighted Oscarino Ferrero – I repeated again that we must take into account the strong impact, in particular but not only on the road network, and of the other various collateral activities, on the entire territory, and therefore of the concrete need for support the technical services with modest staffing resources of small municipalities such as that of Romano ».

The mayor of Romano is worried about the growing commitment required of the municipal technical offices, not only that of his municipality, engaged in the assessments of the great Italvolt project and in the potential changes to be made to the respective municipal planning documents in force, which require an adaptation of the structures techniques and the support of the higher bodies (Metropolitan City and Region), which have only informally promised to give their support to the various municipal technical offices. Necessary technical support, according to Oscarino Ferrero, also to try to be able to access the European funding provided for in the National Recovery and Resilience Plan, the disbursement of which will be possible only in the face of projects ready to be presented by the individual Municipalities.

The significant increase in waiting times for authorizations for private building interventions also weighs on this situation. “I understand the complaints of citizens – he explained – but private practices have more than doubled. The staff of our technical office is made up of only two resources: the architect and manager Davide Giancola, mainly in charge of public works, and the surveyor Lorenzo Dezzutti, in charge of managing private building practices. Who, with these new pressing commitments of various kinds, are currently unable to respond in thirty days, as in the past, to numerous requests for authorization, even if they are still able to meet the maximum deadline, between 60 and 90 days, to examine and process the paperwork “. –
