São José dos Campos Urban Structuring Program- Request III
Country: Brazil
Reception date: February, 4 2019
Current Status: Closed
Requesters:
Confidential.
Summary of the Request
The Request raises potential impacts on the quality of life of residents located in the area of influence of the Program.
Specifically, the Request states that the construction work for the section "Arco da Inovação / Ponte Estaiada," that is part of the Program, would be affecting the property of the inhabitants, by causing the devaluation of properties such as homes and businesses.
It also raises possible environmental and health effects in areas that would be impacted by noise, visual and atmospheric pollution; as well as the road insecurity caused by mass transit.
Finally, the request alleges that adequate consultation processes did not take place and the information requested about the Project was not provided.
The Requesters wish to use both the Consultation Phase and the Compliance Review Phase, in such case that their Request is declared eligible.
