The official handover will take place in a week, but today Chiara Appendino debuts with the tricolor sash as mayor of Turin and will start the 5-star revolution. The first act of discontinuity with the past will be the closure of the Foundation for culture, the private law entity wanted by his predecessor Piero Fassino in order to collect sponsorships and disburse funding for the Turin cultural system. In the program of the first five-star citizen, the 32-year-old from Moncalieri, there is a clear intention to bring everything back into the hands of the Municipality with public tenders, with the intention above all of saving 400 thousand euros a year for operating costs.
With regard to the Metro 2 line, the new administration does not like the layout and related real estate transactions. The hypothesis is that of a referendum.
Another question discussed is that of Health Park, and the 5 Star project envisages a return to the intentions of 2011 when Roberto Cota was president of the Region, i.e. a top-to-bottom renovation of the Molinette hospital. Finally the Tav, the mother of all ideological battles in Piedmont. Chiara Appendino recognizes the reasons for the No but she is also aware of the fact that in the end she will not be able to prevent its realization: from this point of view, therefore, a tug of war is envisaged made above all of symbolic acts.
