1. Building Healthy Communities Sofia Cordella – S. Di Sabatino and LSG LAP TITLE “ Urban and Sub-urban re-qualification plans through target actions to remove aerial high tension cables with emphasis on city outlook improvement to reinforce citizen city good perception and use of public space” Photos by “Maraca Fotografie” - Lecce TRADITIONS PROJECTED TOWARDS THE FUTURE LECCE MUNICIPALITY ITALY

2. Reasons for the LAP We remind that the objectives of LECCE LAP were: removal of and placing underground aerial high tension cables (ENEL) and data transmission cables (TELECOM). Where? Two main areas: the historical centre where some interventions have been already made and the neighbourhood called “ zone 45 ” Reasons  To reduce the electromagnetic field linked to electromagnetic pollution in some city areas. This is especially high in the target zone 45 where an ENEL sub-station is present;  Aesthetic reasons reinforced by the high degradation of some buildings in the historical centre  Regeneration and improvement of city outlook  First step for future planning in the zone 45 where more vegetation is planned  Improvement of quality of life in this target zone / SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

3. LAP’S AREAS OF INTERVENTION - Details of the two areas:

4. Reasons for the LAP Challenges  To continue to be pro-active in funds searching. (It was observed at the last meeting Turin that one of the weak aspects of the LAP was the possible lost of interest during the fund chasing)  To keep motivation of stakeholders high  To measure and evaluate all (or least most important) indicators (some of them are straightforward –e.g. physical indicators other e.g. social might be more difficult to evaluate in short term)  To achieve the expected/desired impact our LAP at different levels (local, regional administration an local population) derived from the overall BHC experience and knowledge acquisition To produce urban environmental guidelines for public territory interventions and regeneration actions in our cities with emphasis on health and quality of life
