It will reserve 30 percent of public housing for young people and will promote the mobilization of uninhabited homes with fiscal measures
MADRID, 9 Abr. (EUROPA PRESS) –
The PSOE proposes that the rental price be set in accordance with a public system of reference prices that involves all the Public Administrations. In addition, he wants to limit tourist rental apartments in the center of cities due to the problem caused by increases in housing rental prices.
This is stated in the document ‘Bases for the debate of the municipal framework program 2023’ for May 28, that the ‘socialists’ will debate the next April 14, 15 and 16 at the municipal convention that will be held in Valencia and which Europa Press has had access.
In the aforementioned document, the PSOE proposes a “balanced regulation” for tourist activities that affect the coexistence between citizens and tourists, such as tourist rental housing.
And for this, it proposes to limit the “disproportionate growth of tourist apartments in their historic centers where this phenomenon causes a problem of access to housing due to an increase in rental prices.”
And linked to this same matter, it has included in its bases to carry out the municipal program its intention that the rental price be set in accordance with a “public system of reference prices”, which involves all the public Administrations and that provides transparency to the market and helps the tenant.
Also and in reference to the latter, he wants to reinforce the housing payment aid system and expand the park of social and affordable rentals. In fact, the PSOE believes that the public park should be entirely for rent.
In this sense, the Socialists believe that the public housing stock should preferably be nourished by houses already built, distributed equitably throughout the territory, and acquired in public purchase processes. But it points out that “homes from evictions and in the hands of banks will be excluded.”
They also want to avoid the sale of public housing parks and promote protected rental strategies, while promoting public-private collaboration “updating prices to adapt to real construction costs, in order to promote the private promotion of rental housing protected”.
In this public park, public networks of facilities would also be created for specially protected groups and at risk of social exclusion, youth, people over 65, and single-parent families in need of protection.
Along with these proposals, the PSOE will analyze at its municipal convention on April 14, 15 and 16 the proposal to reserve housing in the allocation quotas for young people of 30 percent. And to promote emancipation they want to promote the development of Public Rental Housing for young people, guaranteeing adequate and transparent management of the municipal rental pool.
They also include the development of mobilization strategies for uninhabited homes to put them on the market, articulating fiscal measures to reduce the vacant park, and encourage their putting up for rent, preferably at affordable prices.
Along with this, they propose streamlining all the necessary procedures to promote the use or use of existing empty housing in rural areas, as well as coordination with the rest of the competent administrations.
‘Cohousing’ is another of the proposals of this program, and for this they propose housing aid for young people in exchange for promoting coexistence with older people and actions of accompaniment, support and intergenerational solidarity. They include in this point the promotion of life in common for those over 65 years of age.
And in addition to prioritizing the rehabilitation of already consolidated areas of the city, they see it as necessary to draw up framework programs for the regeneration of the urban fabric that contemplate actions in degraded areas, neighborhoods punished by unemployment or social exclusion, as well as abandoned or unused peri-urban areas, providing them with of services and community spaces.
They also include the proposal to incentivize with the IBI exemption during the first year in order to promote energy self-consumption with renewable energy sources.
