The previous director acknowledged that there is a lack of resources to complete the works planned in El Poblado. How much money are we talking about and how will it be covered? Own resources, loans, another spill? For the El Poblado project there will be no more valuation spillover. This year, the district administration, through Fonvalmed, managed ordinary resources for $30 billion, which will allow progress in mitigating the deficit, which, as of December 2023, reached $60 billion.

What is the schedule for this year of the missing works on the Transversal Intermedia (Carrera 34) and on the Linares-Tesoro road? This year, the projects on 34th Avenue, at 5th South Street (Loma de Los González) and the overpass on the Linares-Tesoro highway, are in the process of updating studies and designs, as well as in property acquisition. , in order to have the inputs for the bidding process.
What can be said about the property acquisition in El Chispero and the solutions for the affected families? In coordination with different entities of the public conglomerate and the community, we are seeking, to the extent possible, on site, a technically, financially and legally viable solution. After analysis of the components of the work on Avenue 34 with the Los González hill, and in meetings with entities of the district administration and community actors, adjustments were made to the approved geometric road design, which allowed reducing property management in the El Chispero sector, from 36 to 12 properties, which will mostly correspond to acquisitions of free areas, that is, residential plots.

The previous management of Fonvalmed delivered the extension of Carrera 15 as a finished work, but it has no continuity after San Marcos de la Sierra. What is missing for it to really serve to decongest Los Balsos and San Lucas? The extension of race 15 ended in accordance with the provisions of the El Poblado valorization project. The connection with Envigado, at the height of the San Marcos de la Sierra urbanization, corresponds to a metropolitan work that must be managed through the Aburrá Valley Metropolitan Area (AMVA), Envigado and Medellín.

Finally, will the district make any decision about Fonvalmed? Will follow? Will it be restructured? Fonvalmed, hand in hand with the district, has been working for some years on the project to transform and expand the corporate purpose, which allows the entity and the district administration to implement land management instruments in addition to valorization, materializing the land management model. occupation defined in the POT and articulating the valuation with other instruments of the financing subsystem (article 499 of Municipal Agreement 48 of 2014).
