According to an official statement, the Council indicates that the project would be funded by the Ministry of Inclusion, Social Security and Migration and managed by a private entity in a private residence. The municipal government claims to have learned about the situation through information provided by local residents.
The City Council emphasizes that it did not participate in the planning of this resource and, therefore, could not assess crucial aspects such as the availability of public services or the potential impact on local coexistence. Following initial neighborhood complaints, municipal technical services are reviewing whether the activity complies with current regulations.
The Pinto City Council is the first to be surprised by this decision.
For its part, the Más Madrid Pinto political group has sharply criticized the municipal stance, deeming it unrepresentative of the corporation and conducive to generating social alarm. This group argues that security is ensured by strengthening public resources and protection policies, rather than by singling out vulnerable groups.
Councilor Elena Ancos has warned that such messages can foster prejudice and divert attention from other municipal issues. She has urged the governing team to rectify its position and focus its actions on integration and social support measures, instead of disseminating messages that, in her opinion, can promote division.
