Today the Harbour Committee of Livorno has approved of the budget of forecast of the Harbour Authority for the 2014 and updated directory of the works. The next year the agency that manages financial the Leighorn port previews to clearly record a total remainder of 18 million euros and an economic remainder of 1,83 million euros. They are attended entered in the order of 46 million euros and escapes for a total almost 59, with a financial deficit of exercise of 13 million euros that it will find cover by means of it I use of pairs amount of the residual remainder of administration. Considering that on December 31, 2013 the presumed remainder of administration is of 31 million - it has specified the harbour authority - it is easy to arrive to the final balance of 18.
"As the financial administration can be noticed - the general secretary of the Harbour Authority of Livorno has commented, Massimo Provinciali - has a presumed inferior remainder regarding that of the year precedence. This demonstrates that we have not remained arrest warrants, indeed has unfolded new resources and energies in order to answer in adapted way to the perspectives of development of the port of call. It is not a case that for the 2014 we preview to spend 35 million euros for infrastructural investments and extraordinary maintenances".
From the picture of the resources available it emerges that in the three years the 2014-2016 harbour authority will have between entrances on hand having bound destination for law, acquired entrances by means of contraction of mortgage and for contributions of private capitals, and appropriations budgetary, something as 33 million euros left again in 21,5 million for the first year, you almost are for the second and the third year. On the base of the esteem of the program costs, for the 2014 engagements of expense for 42 million euros of which 15 are previewed, coming from the fiscal entrances and regional financings, to employ for the dredging of the Tuscany Dock and five (entered fiscal ones) for the first lottery of the warehouse for the cellulose previewed in zone M-K. For the 2015 there are forecasts of expense for 44 million euros of which 15 South will be used for the dredging of the Mouth, three for the dredging of the channel of Access, more than two in order to complete warehouse M-K (cost total: seven million euro), five will be destined to the participations of transformation of the bathtubs of control of the mud for the realization of the first module of the Platform Europe and four for the riprofilamento of the dock of the Channel of Access in the zone Tower of the Marzocco (II Lottery). For the third and last year the expense forecast is of 33 million euros.
"We have previewed works and advanced engagements of expense to the effective economic availabilities - it has specified Provincial - because, as usual, we think of being able to count on the savings deriving from the auction decreases, stops remaining the possibility of acquisition of ulterior resources".
In occasion of the reunion of the Harbour Committee the president of the Harbour Authority, Giuliano Gallanti, has announced that "the Authority is disposed to sign an ulterior increase of capital in favor of the Interporto Vespucci. We are ready - it has specified - to put on the plate other 500 thousand euros, that we would employ if someone of the associates was able to not to increase own quota participation". Between the folds of the deliberation on the variation of the budget of the 2013 in fact they are previewed, between the escapes on account capital, variations in the order of 600 thousand euros in order to tackle to the subscription, acquisition and participation to the capital of several societies. Gallanti has explained that the Interporto has a need of 18 million euros and that, therefore, all the associates underwriters is called to an economic effort in order to tackle to the rescue of the society. "We have been first to sign the capital increase - it has found - and have collaborated because it was introduced, in the slid assembly, an ambitious industrial plan that a efficient logistic operator made of the Interporto. It is clearly that in order to reach this objective they serve two things: the widening of the customs town-walls and I climb over it railway of the Tirrenica". The harbour agency has remembered that the work of connection between the port and the retroporto, for which is necessary climbs over it of the Tirrenica, has a cost total of 14 million euros and that the Region has put seven and others seven count to recover them from the ministry of Infrastructures: "we have spoken with the civil employees of the MIT - has said the representative of the Tuscany Region in Committee, Adriano Poggiali - and they have been said available to insert the work in the program strategic infrastructures of the Cipe. Within spring we will introduce the definitive project".
Recalling itself to the declarations returned yesterday from the minister of Infrastructures and the Transports in occasion of the shareholders' meeting of Assoporti, Gallanti has emphasized as Maurizio Lupi has been clear: "the ports and interposing you must make system and be set to the attention of the shipping international as which extended logistic authorities. We - he has found the president of the Harbour Authority of Livorno - are moving own in this direction".
To conclusion of the today's reunion Gallanti Port of Livorno 2000, the which charged society of the management of the crocieristico traffic in the port of call has made the point on the issue, of which the harbour agency it stops the majority: "we have - it has explained - four essential points on which we must reflect: point first, the law is incontrovertible: we must come down under 50%. We cannot only ignore the national norm because until now it is not applied. Point two: the only way that we know in order to come down under 50% is through contest. Point three: it will be the advisor to say us that value has the enterprise, than we must come down, and when he is advisable to sell. Point four: no dietrologia on the gentleman agreement between me and the president of the Chamber of Commerce: Roberto Nardi simply has engaged itself, and it has made it in occasion of the Harbour Committee, not to exercise the preemptive right on the quotas Porto 2000 that the authority is obliged to sell on the base of the law prescription". "At the beginning of the next week - assistant has Provincial - we will open the envelopes for the choice of the advisor, than beginning from the award of the assignment it will have to the maximum 90 days in order to supply the demanded appraisals to us".
Expressing own appreciation for the way in which until today the game on the dismissione of the quotas majority of the society is managed, the mayor of Livorno, Alessandro Cosimi, has confirmed that "our distance is that established in the Triennial Operations plan. The study of the advisor - it has found - is an instrument useful also in order to understand which advantages could have the city economy from a distance of valorization of our assets". Cosimi has pointed out that the POT "does not preconize situations of abstraction of the subjects publics from the crocieristico field" and that the public interest of the Tuscany Region for this asset is and remains an important opportunity: "the Region - it has concluded the mayor - has already expressed with a sure convincement the interest to operate in synergy with the other local authorities in order to create a common platform on tourism and cruises, and therefore it is not excluded a priori by a distance that candidates Livorno to become a crocieristico port to the vanguard. It is clearly that the same reasoning is worth for the international actors potentially interested to our marine port of call. We only find ourselves in the starting phase of a debate on which we will have ourselves to be pronounced in the next reunions of Harbour Committee in order to define the strategic choices".
