MEPS TO VISIT PARCENT

A delegation from the Petition's Committee

of the European Parliament is to visit

Parcent on March 1st. The visit to Parcent

and 9 other villages in Alicante Province

was proposed during the debate of our

petition in the Petition's Committee last

November.

The delegation, which aims to investigate

the current situation of abuses of urban

planning legislation and breaches of European

laws, is headed by the President of the

Committee, Mr Marcin Libicki. He is

accompanied by British Labour MEP, Michael

Cashman, Vice President of the Petition's Committee.

They will be arriving in Parcent on the afternoon

of thursday March 1st and will be met by 'Veïns

de Parcent' by the Cooperativa building

after 4.30 pm, after which we will host a meeting

for the delegation to talk with petitioners,

allowing people to explain their worries and

complaints about the three PAIs which were

provisionally approved by Parcent Town Hall

on 30th January 2006.

The MEPs will then attend a meeting with the

Town Hall after which they will head for Benissa

where a public meeting is to be held in the

Sede Universitaria building, Calle Purissima 57/59

from 7pm till 9pm.

We invite all members of 'Veïns de Parcent' and

all interested in the problems of urban planning

in Valencia and in particular Parcent to

meet us at the Cooperativa Building and

attend our meeting with the MEPS to

demonstrate our oppostion to the Town Hall's

plans and our thanks to the Petition's Committee

of the EU for coming to Parcent to investigate our

complaint.
