Shade trees in squares
No comments North district
Plant shade trees in squares that are now mere stone deserts or lack them, so that they can be used by neighbors as small oases in the city and contribute to clean the environment and lower high temperatures in summer. To provide them with sufficient land and irrigation so that they can live and develop (and not remain like sad skewers). Choose species that work well in this environment.
Reading rooms: accessibility and wi-fi
No comments South district
The reading rooms are one of the few spaces, next to the libraries, where the youth of the district can study quietly and properly prepare their exams.
Recently some of them have been rehabilitated, but they need improvements both to allow access to their services to everyone and to facilitate the consultation of information and knowledge so necessary while a person studies. Therefore, we propose that in the four reading rooms:
To install elements that allow accessibility to people with reduced mobility, except in Cebreros due to the strong technical difficulties of carrying it out. Free wi-fi network coverage is available. We also propose the installation of accessibility elements for people with reduced mobility at the western entrance to the Cultural Centre.
Green roofs and solar panels
No comments City
Create a network of green roofs with vegetation to help improve air quality and reduce temperature in the city.
On roofs that are not suitable for the use of vegetation, install solar panels that meet the energy needs of city lighting and public buildings.
Outdoor Dancefloors
No comments South district
Installation/construction of two dance floors (wooden floor) in the district
Technical aspects:
- Surface area of land to be built per track: 100 square meters
- Floor material: wooden platform resistant to exteriors (sliding materials to facilitate the dance and the care of the knees of lxs bailarinxs).
- Lighting point installation (Electrotechnics: Power supply, electricity): to be able to plug loudspeakers or other utensils.
Possible location within the park itself: The best site, for lighting, sonority (minimize possible impact to the rest of neighbors), shadows and location, would be in the area that now occupies the playground (more used, unfortunately, as a dog park) which would move this to another area of the park. (it is not essential and would be evaluated by the technicians of the council with a view to minimizing expenses and improving the idea).
The dance floor would in no case involve eliminating any of the existing trees, which means respecting them and/or integrating them into the design.
Justification of the location, ideas and positive aspects to take into account that support the investment:
- Dynamisation of public spaces with music and dance for all citizens.
- Intergenerational activities.
- New ways of living and building the public space, promoting neighborhood coexistence.
- Dancing as an alternative to healthy, social leisure, which helps to improve both physical and psychological fitness.
Enlarge library
No comments South district
Dámaso Alonso's library is small and would need to be enlarged in order to enlarge the collection of books.
Change all lighting to leds
No comments East district
Continue to change the lighting of the city, not only the low streetlights that have been changed recently, but also the higher streetlights, all the lighting of tunnels and roads and the lighting of public buildings, thus promoting greater savings that impact on energy expenditure (this money can be used for other initiatives) and simultaneously promoting a reduction in pollution that such energy savings entails. Part of the money can also be used to carry out a campaign to encourage the same change in private homes, providing incentives such as discounts on the purchase of such lighting systems.
At the same time, we could think of models of street lamps with solar panels in the same style as parking meters or some traffic signs, so that the savings would be greater or the energy generated could be sold to the electricity grid.
It is necessary to think about saving expenses as well as it has been carried out, in this way greater budgetary items can be destined for things that are worthwhile to the citizens.
Creation of day centres for people with Alzheimer's disease
No comments City
The population is increasing in age and not all older people have places to go with specific help. Especially municipal day centres for Alzheimer's where professionals could help stimulate them to be less sad and alone at home.
Chargers for electric vehicles.
No comments City
The city must have more charging zones to encourage the purchase of electric vehicles. For a cleaner and greener city.
