Lands Donated To
Government Has
Santa Ana
Residents Upset
Residents of
Santa Ana have
reason to be
upset over the
government's
plan to use a 50
hectare parcel
of land that is
home to fauna
and flora
managed by
FUNDAZOO, to
build offices
for the MINAET
to serve the
areas of Mora,
Santa Ana,
Escazú and
others.
The land have
now become
"grounds of
contention" that
even those who
donated the land
are upset at the
government's
hidden agenda
for the land.
Residents
learned of the
alternate plans
contained in a
letter last year
by the then
deputy ministra
de Ambiente
Energía y
Telecomunicación.
The letter
clearly states
that the land is
a perfect
location for the
construction of
a sub-regional
office.
The lands, for
the meantime,
continue to be
under the
administration
of FUNDAZOO, but
will handed over
to the Areas de
Conservación del
Pacífico Central
(ACOPAC) if
legislators pass
a law to
transfer the
lands into the
hands of the
government.
Residents argue
that the area
should handed
over to the
Municipalidad de
Santa Ana to
recover the
beauty of
wetlands and
forests that was
once the nature
of the land.
