During Radio Lady of the local newspaper of July 7, 2009 the new mayor of Florence, Matteo Renzi, ha rimarcato – giustamente dobbiamo dire – che per combattere il fenomeno dei venditori abusivi stranieri (extra comunitari e non) bisognerebbe cominciare a colpire non solo chi produce oggetti contraffatti, ma anche coloro - italiani soprattutto - che affittano a prezzi esorbitanti gli appartamenti “a nero” a queste persone, speculando sulla loro necessità di ottenere un alloggio che non di rado viene condiviso da un numero spropositato di inquilini.
Se è vero che questa affermazione risponde alla realtà – e Confedilizia ha sempre combattuto tale fenomeno, assolutamente ingiustificabile – il Sindaco dovrebbe ricordare che la nostra Associazione (che rappresenta la piccola proprietà diffusa e non the large real estate) has joined and signed, together with organizations of tenants and the City Council, a memorandum of understanding providing for the reimbursement of ICI (municipal property tax) for owners who either fail to rent an apartment, as provided Article 2 of Law 431/98, without increasing the fee from the previous agreement of 2004.
It should be remembered because for too many years the small landowners were forced, time absolutely fair and appropriate, to take on the problem of housing for all those citizens who could not (and wanted) to get one for mostly economic reasons and that even more so today, are excluded from access to the private housing market. People who invested their savings to earn additional salary and / or pension has been seen to frustrate all the sacrifices and the sacrifices endured. This was done first with the action - unfair and unacceptable - the fair rent, then with subsidized rents, and finally with the absurd time of evictions for rent arrears. The latter, however, continually blocked by government measures, which make the property free of income - but still taxed and salat. On the contrary, those who preferred to invest their money in government bonds had a much better fate.
Yet, it would be good to remember that in both cases we are dealing with citizens who somehow have helped our country, the one (government bonds) to cover the costs for investment and to help the state budget, the other (the owners of properties) to solve the housing problem for those to whom the state itself has never been able to give practical help and comprehensive.
And then, in our humble opinion, the Mayor Renzi should be drawn to the plight of the Rentals "on black", but should keep in mind the need to acknowledge the valuable assistance of those who have provided a really good to help the City of Florence to limit the problem of shortage of public housing to eliminate intervening the absurdity of charging the ICI to these owners and return it in time and convenience. It would be a nice way to start your own office!
