The city government added a new chapter to his strained relationship with social and popular movements the city. In the Housing Commission of the Buenos Aires Legislature expects a controversial treatment bill sent by the Executive to "provide for the sale of property" belonging to the Housing Institute of the City (IVC). The measure attempts macrismo aims to boost the marketing of 36 properties. Thus, the IVC would fund (through the shedding of their own land) to achieve "implement housing solutions, as reflected in the project. The move raised the suspicion of social organizations, but also the arch opponent.
Tomorrow, representatives of social organizations affected by the measure maintained a meeting with the owner of IVC, Omar Abboud, to claim the "suspension of evictions," said Tamae July, president of St. Martin Community Center. "We're going to pitch Abboud 120-day truce," forward Tamae and stated: "If the government agrees to stop evictions, civil society, we lower the level of confrontation and lessen the plan of struggle." The social leader explained that exhort the macrismo to "provide transitional housing for people who became homeless after the recent evictions." On Tuesday
social organizations had met with Opposition legislators. In that meeting, sources said, lawmakers came up with the intention of promoting from the Housing Commission's declaration of emergency housing in the City. In addition, proposed to the Legislature to reopen the budget of the Institute of Housing to revisit and expand the funds allocated to it. These initiatives already have the support of party MPs Buenos Aires Sur Project, the Civic Coalition and the Popular Front for Victory.
The Housing Institute's situation is complex. Diet was first budget in 2008, after subejecutó 50 percent of available funds for 2009, and Finally in 2010 will eat itself, apparently, to obtain the resources necessary for performance. The bill sent by the ruling states that the property whose sale is promoted "assets are assets that do not generate resources," adding that "requires care and custodial care and supervision designed to prevent illegal acts." The macrismo argues further that these properties are now in a "idle and aimless."
The macrismo argues that this initiative is part of a "politics of institutional strengthening" of the IVC, through which make it "increase the financial budget" the body. "The funds have no other destination that provide housing solutions," stand out.

One day he phoned and said simply: "You in the list. " Elida Fernandez, director of General San Martin Community Center, received the "terrible news" that his land was one of the 36 properties that the city government intends to sell. "We continue with our soup kitchen, the snack bar, computer room, library, school support and all activities that always provide," Fernandez stressed, adding: "But now we add the daily struggle to avoid being auctioned our place. "
Community Center has been operating for three years in the neighborhood of Parque Patricio, Avenue Home to 4100. Anibal Ibarra's government had given way on loan to build a housing complex by a cooperative and, until the works are completed, they commissioned the assembly of a community center. Paradox, the same day he entered the proposed sale of 36 properties, the Buenos Aires Legislature passed a law to give the San Martin Center permission to use the land for ten years. "The land must be dedicated to the practice of social, cultural and community," notes an article in the 3378 Act. Mauricio Macri vetoed it.
