Jerez political leaders discuss urban investment and neighborhood conditions

In Jerez, the PSOE has welcomed a new investment of approximately 1.69 million euros from the Spanish government for the rehabilitation of the Palacio de Riquelme. This funding, combined with 800,772 euros granted last year through the 2% Cultural program, brings the total recovery effort for the palace to nearly 2.5 million euros. Mamen Sánchez, provincial PSOE president, noted that these funds complement previous European Next Generation investments used for the Distrito Sherry program, which improved local infrastructure such as the Plaza del Mercado and various parking areas.

Separately, José Antonio Díaz, general secretary of the Jerez PSOE and mayoral candidate, visited the El Agrimensor neighborhood to address resident concerns. Díaz criticized the current administration led by the People's Party, alleging a state of abandonment and degradation in the area. He pledged to include a specific infrastructure and public services plan in the socialist electoral program, focusing on sidewalk improvements, lighting, paving, green space recovery, and the creation of new sports and children's play areas.
