The Fundación Iberdrola España and the Paiporta Town Hall have signed an agreement for the reconstruction of the children’s playgrounds in La Senyera Park, Plaza Cervantes, and San Antonio Street, as well as the landscaped area on Antonio Machado Street.
Additionally, the installation of a new air conditioning system at the Rosa Serrano Primary and Early Education School has been agreed upon, along with work to adapt the electrical installation at the Municipal Market, which involved rehabilitating the transformation center and the meter panel. The total investment for this project will be €343,000, with €253,000 being provided by the Fundación and €90,000 by the town hall.
The signing ceremony, held at the Paiporta Town Hall, was attended by the town's mayor, Vicent Ciscar; the director of Fundación Iberdrola España, Ramón Castresana; the Institutional Delegate of Iberdrola in the Valencian Community, Iban Molina; the director of i-DE (Iberdrola España's energy distribution company) Eastern Region, Guillermo Raga; and the town’s Urban Planning councillor, Alejandro Sánchez, who had the opportunity to visit some of the areas that will benefit from this investment.
Ramón Castresana emphasised that this new aid package “is another demonstration of the Fundación's support for areas that were severely affected by the flooding.” He also reminded those present that, in addition to the various actions that will be carried out in Paiporta, similar agreements had been signed a few weeks earlier for the rehabilitation of the Agricultural Foremen’s School in Catarroja, as well as social programmes focused on mental health and psychosocial support, in collaboration with the Spanish Red Cross and the Betania Association.
On the other hand, Vicent Ciscar, the mayor of Paiporta, expressed his gratitude for the solidarity and assistance received, which makes it possible to carry out specific projects that directly benefit the well-being of the population: “Public-private collaboration is essential and always follows a guarantee procedure with agreements like the one we are signing today.”
