San Siro: Lower sale price suggested, critics from the Democratic Party and Greens

The selling price of the stadium of San Siro by the Municipality to Inter and Milan could decrease by approximately 30 million euros, thus going from 197 million set by the Revenue Agency at 160. A figure which, as Repubblica writes when talking about the final stages of the agreement between the Municipality and the club, concerns the reclamation and other additional costs that the administration should cover. A hypothesis that those city councilors don't like majority who are already critical of the sale of the stadium to club and who have already expressed their vote against in City Council. The resolution will be brought to the floor in September. "The news that the Municipality would be truly disconcerting intending to scale 30 million euros from the 197 that the funds real estate companies that control Milan and Inter will pay for the ownership of San Siro and surrounding areas - comments the Pd councilor Alessandro Giungi -. And that these 30 million, according to a short-sighted reading, they would be 'due' because the law on the stadiums, the Municipality is responsible for the reclamation costs for the construction of a new plant". According to Giungi in fact "nobody forces you to use this regulation", furthermore "if the funds instead ask for its application, it should be even clearer is the lack of any interest whatsoever public throughout the operation. And really it goes without saying that the proceeds from the sale will go to finance works of interest general, because if this were the logic then the disposal of every municipal asset - regardless of conditions and motivations - could lead to making money". Carlo Monguzzi of the Greens is also critical. "Here is the Discontinuity: things are worse than before. Another gift to the funds. speculative! From 197 million to 160 - he comments -. Now San Siro costs less than the Pirellino. It is then offensive to say that the Council will decide how to spend the money: this is the role of the council municipal, not a concession from the monarch".
