"The shoring? An excess of zeal..."

Scaffolding has appeared in the underground parking lot in Piazza della Libertà in Salerno, supporting the floor in preparation for upcoming live concerts . But its presence raises more questions than certainties.

According to what emerged from the Transparency Commission , convened at the request of Five Star Movement councilor Claudia Pecoraro , the structures were wanted by the company organizing the event , not the municipality . Director Grazia Quagliata clarified that the council merely gave its consent , without being an active participant in the decision.

The central issue remains the stability of the square , an issue that, according to Pecoraro, needs to be clarified as soon as possible . In this regard, engineer Nicola Grimaldi will be heard tomorrow to determine whether the scaffolding is linked to real structural issues, such as possible damage to the joints.

The president of the Commission, Antonio Cammarota , does not exclude that the choice was not dictated by "excessive zeal", but by objective needs :

«The scaffolding – he says – seems to have been offered by the company itself, but perhaps because it was necessary ».

Another critical point is the absence of the technical report on the safety and statics of the floor, a document that the Municipality should have provided to the Provincial Supervisory Commission .

Claudia Pecoraro reports that, in place of the report, only a note signed by engineers Mastrandrea and Natale was sent, without any certainty about timing and content .

"It's unacceptable," Pecoraro emphasized, "that a fundamental document for the safety of a public event is missing."

The councilor asks a key question:

"If the square has hosted concerts in the past, why is a technical report being requested this time? What has changed?"

The answer, according to Pecoraro herself, could lie in the well-known problems of infiltration and damage to the joints of the structure: a clear sign of structural criticality .

Beyond safety, there's also an economic issue . The parking lot, partially closed for scaffolding installation, means a loss of revenue for the municipality.

"Is there any compensation for the loss of revenue?" Pecoraro asks. "If not, it raises the possibility of public funds being used to benefit private entities."

A delicate aspect which, together with transparency on security, requires immediate responses .
