“The Palacio de Congresos provides the most accurate forecasts in management, development, and numbers over recent decades. It has one of the most advanced infrastructures in the country. We have faced difficulties with the pandemic, and there has been a grievance. Yesterday, the mayor mentioned the Board’s concession of economic rebalancing to the companies responsible for managing Isla magica and Palacio de Congresos de Cordoba. It was also necessary for the one who manages the infrastructure of Granada, to offset the losses resulting from the pandemic. However, the regional administration did not approve it.
The mayor was confronted by this situation and asked Juanma Moreno (president of the Junta de Andalucia) to clarify who he should address and “if he’s also in that grievance towards Granada.”
Jacobo Calvo (councilor spokesperson for the government team) said last Tuesday that lack of compensation places at risk 40 events planned by the Palace. This year, the Board refused to grant economic restructuring. It may be done by extending the contract with concessionaire. It is now that it has been revealed that Seville, Cordoba and the regional administration have received approval.
The mayor of Granada announced that he would meet with the concessionaire next week. He reminded them that they are still responsible for their obligations even after the pandemic. They must pay the IBI, the management fee, and make the necessary investments to modernize the Palacio de Congresos.
