How political connections in Seixal led to a hole. The construction of a home financed with one million euros of public money, without tender, is at a standstill and in court. The contractor is known for leaving works in the middle.
The step is slow, the look of desolation. “I haven’t been here for months, everything is abandoned, not a fly is to be seen!”, She tells the SATURDAY Joaquim Raposo, president of the Fernão Ferro Retired Association. The Private Institution of Social Solidarity received more than 1 million euros to build a home with the capacity to receive 63 users and provide home care to more than 40 people. The work, financed with public money, has been transformed into an authentic shipyard. “If the works don’t restart quickly, nothing that is here will be used”, he says, pointing to the cement structure and electrical cables still hanging, which with the last rains have been deteriorating. It should have been ready over a year ago.
