KINGS OF ROME

Last February, the Rome City Council has approved the new plan. The predictions are for new buildings to 70 million cubic meters of concrete over an area of \u200b\u200b11-15 thousand hectares.
A new city, bigger than Naples, which will be built in the countryside near Rome. All this despite the population growth in the capital is close to zero, except for approximately 200 000 new residents between the immigrants. The plan was envisaged by the local authority, the creation of many small town called Central, all around the current urbanized area. These micro city will be built on private land in the possession of large manufacturers: Toti, Scarpellini, Ligresti, Caltagirone, Santarelli, seeking to increase the already substantial cubatorie forecasts provided by the plan just approved. The instrument through which these demands can be realized is the "Program Agreement".
Just a builder or an owner of an 'area asks the administration to go to the plan notwithstanding, that this procedure replaces the public decision-making table of negotiation between the parties. with this technique is that many urban rules can jump.
The investigation shows, however, things work in other two European capitals: Paris and Madrid.
Bercy in Paris was built: a mini-city grown in recent years around the old city, comparable to one of the 'Central' that you want to build in Rome. Here, however, the City of Paris, while involving private property and manufacturers, maintains its pivotal role in planning decisions, in terms of localization of function and design.
Madrid shows, in parallel with Rome, as it is addressed the construction of social housing and public. The English government moves to genuine entrepreneur, however, always taking into account the high needs of young people looking for home. In Rome and in the rest of Italy the construction of public housing is now reduced almost to zero and the creation of affordable housing has been completely delegated to large private developers.
