In the midst of the review process of Porto Alegre’s Urban Environmental Development Master Plan (PDDUA), a movement that brings together 46 business and cl entities in the capital of Rio Grande do Sul prepared a “commented Master Plan”, the result of a series of workshops and which was sent to the city hall with contributions for the processing and implementation of public standards and policies for urban planning.
Some of these points were commented on at the launch of the “Movimento Porto Alegre +”, which took place this Monday morning (6) at the Hotel Ritter, in the Historic Center of Porto Alegre.
According to the initiative’s spokesperson, construction businessman Claudio Teitelbaum – president of Sinduscon-RS -, participation in the PPDUA review is the movement’s first front of action. “We are a joint mobilization and awareness action so that Porto Alegre has more urban mobility, more job creation, more entrepreneurship, more economic growth, more security, orderly densification, more appreciation of more complete areas and neighborhoods, generating more
quality of life for the population and sustainable development”, he summarizes. The entities gathered represent segments such as commerce and retail, industry, services, tourism, urban planning, entrepreneurship and innovation.
Sinduscon-RS technical consultant, Antonio Zago, explained that, since 2019, when the PDDUA review began, there has been a multisectoral working group aimed at evaluating the different points of the plan. Based on this work, the entities held collaborative workshops between the entities, which resulted in the document sent by Porto Alegre + to the municipal administration. Among the suggested proposals is improving the use of public space. “We want to replicate the densification of neighborhoods such as Bom Fim, Cidade Baixa, which are quite complete, where there is no need for large displacements of their residents to other parts of the city. Based on studies, we identified regions where this can be allowed, within the line of democratizing housing in certain neighborhoods and ensuring that increased density generates more security and mobility conditions”, explains Zago. In total, the collective highlights 40 points of attention within the PPDUA review process.
