I am a citizen of Lecco, in love with my city. Maybe I should say what is left of my city! And so outraged by the infamous urban management that our politicians are working. Who is in Lecco for the first time today can not help but be amazed at the beauty of the landscape: the unbroken chains of mountains, the lake with her breasts and gulfs, the woods of Resegone that still surround the city ( for what?), the water of the rivers flowing into the ... Yet for too long, one piece at a time, batch after batch, the administration is consuming the territory by throwing tons of cement is more crudely fashioned: green spaces removed, cut trees, ugly tower blocks (who in their right mind would have allowed the last "work" Carsana firm in San Giovanni?). Dostoevsky said that beauty will save the world in Lecco ignorance and interest of a few are creating an ugliness that, on the contrary, we condemn. We must put an end to think only in economic terms. The monetization of the charges and order the urban city. The true wealth is the trees, are the parks where our children can run and play, are the rivers puliti che scorrono accanto a noi. E non ditemi che queste cose non possono convivere con la città. Andate a vedere una qualsiasi città del Nord Europa: Stoccolma, Berlino, Oslo, Copenaghen o le città della vicina Svizzera, Austria e Slovenia! Se la la ricchezza naturale e storica del nostro territorio fosse stata nelle mani di amministratori saggi oggi non avremmo da invidiare nulla a nessuna parte del mondo! Bisogna indignarsi e trovare ogni forma di opposizione per fermare questo scempio. Perchè non concentrarsi sulla ristrutturazione dei nuclei storici dei nostri quartieri, perchè non adoperarsi per aumentare la classe energetica delle case esistenti rendendole più efficienti e meno inquinanti, perchè non iniziare a major campaign in favor of solar, wind and geothermal ... Do not invent anything, they are concrete proposals in the rest of Europe are finding time to implement: the real estate sector declined for "green", which would be a virtually inexhaustible source of income for our local manufacturers.

One on Thursday evening I attended a teleshopping molto particolare: non si promuovevano pentole o materassi, ma si cercava di vendere sicurezza.
Presenti alla trasmissione il Sindaco Faggi, l’assessore alla Sicurezza Teti e il comandante dei vigili Baffa, il tema della serata erano le famose ordinanze sul decoro urbano e l’accattonaggio.
Ebbene, per quasi due ore i telespettatori hanno assistito ad un “one man show” (in questo caso occorrerebbe dire “woman”) nel quale si sponsorizzavano le ordinanze come unico strumento per risolvere il vero e unico problema della nostra città: l’insicurezza percepita.
“I cittadini mi fermano per strada e mi chiedono di fare qualcosa per le situazioni di degrado” said the mayor. And what do you invent then? Superpowers to the mayor and the commander Baffa, fines and confiscation of the dish for those who ask for alms, fierce fighter final retailers abusive, even when stopped off the train! A party should explain how do you recognize abuse when a seller gets off the train, we are sure that only "cleaning up" by these two situations the streets of our downtown, our quality of life will be affected positively?
What about the car and never made open, stopping the wild or on the sidewalks in the pedestrian area (yes, of course, firefighters are all busy doing the watch against the arrival the "enemy"), yards languishing unfinished for years (the local press has witnessed in recent weeks, with much evidence)?
And what more places for children that are missing in primary schools, architectural barriers that make life impossible for anyone who has to push a wheelchair or a stroller, the total lack of cultural programming for the city?
The Mayor has repeatedly invoked during transmission, the need for the "culture of compliance", but it was also a little 'respect for culture "? The cinema closed, the theater is underutilized, for lack of facilities to express talent of our young people who know how to say or play and then we complain that they go all out from the bars to drink until late at night and disturb.
I tried to mention these things during a phone call during the live broadcast, but the mayor would dismiss my comments as "political attack by a representative of the opposition" and made a point of responding in substance to the criticism moves me.
"If there was the opposition I would be queen," he annotated the Beech ironically, and perhaps this is his dream not so secret.
I'm sorry to disappoint Mr. Mayor, and the opposition is going to be felt more and More on these issues of crucial importance for our city.

A contribution of Don Angelo Cupini - Community Via Gaggia
I'm used to seeing the city, around the world, starting from the suburbs, from the care of the burial of the dead in cemeteries, from the information offered to tourists. If a city cares about his life not only by the drawing room, putting everything under the carpet that is residual and peripheral. I happened to get into homes dove le famiglie hanno cellofanato i mobili del salotto perché non prendano polvere; case da vedere e da ostentare ma non da vivere. Sono entrato in case povere, aperte ad accoglienti.
Queste ed altre cose mi sono tornate in mente quando ho ricevuto dallo Sportello Unico per le Attività Produttive del Comune di Lecco in data 17 ottobre la comunicazione nella quale “non si ritiene opportuno concedere l’utilizzo della Piazza Venti Settembre per motivazioni di ordine igienico-sanitario, (derivanti dalla programmata distribuzione di cibo e vino caldo su un’area pubblica) nonché dalla necessità di tutelare il decoro della piazza che è fra quelle di maggior pregio urbanistico ed ambientale della città”.
This is the call that I had signed on the use of the same place for the conduct of the initiative "The Night of the Homeless."
For the record, and truth, I must also say that we were offered the option of using another area in public places Bione, " such as the traveling shows that the area is already equipped with suitable facilities. "
I write this note after ten days of the canons to have written comments to the Office City to make it clear that I do not care counter a decision by the U.S. Administration, and my concern is to continue to raise questions about our live as responsible citizens.
I understand the concern in order to keep the spaces and that they are enjoyed by all, the investment community via gaggio with the realization of the house on the shaft testifies unequivocally.
I was born to wonder if this look does not reveal much. We all would happen, in front of some family emergencies, renovate their homes, saying that whoever comes is more important part of our order.
My question: for our civil society, what place people and people with difficulties? The families of the fifties in our area that tell the polenta in the table just given, was for the anonymous passer, which was the "Lord .
What are the values \u200b\u200bshared in organizing our lives today? selective than those of money and image? As we are working culturally and politically to address the challenges of new admissions (or the most vulnerable of foreigners arriving)? We are open to intelligently in the defense or mutual integration? The well is more export to other regions of the world and not be shared by converting our city?
For the growth of human beauty of our city the various orders issued by the city in these times, we need them? I do not seem to see an equally explicit statement of passion and practice of people's lives.
We are a friendly city or the adjective is back to volunteering to be welcoming and politics, finance, religion, interests, play with other registers?
And beyond the reception which they invest for the future? What we ask these people, recognizing human and technical skills, especially for young people ? We have confidence in their presence?
At the time of the youth project of the city of Lecco communication was: who they are and what they represent young people in this city? E 'for me rephrase the question today: who are the persons covered by the ordinance, but not only them, for us? Accepting questions and did not close the future. Supports me in this place sharp and penetrating as a friend was Don Abraham Levi: "we should not seek nor consent, nor chase the dissent, but to be seekers of meaning."
