Most significantly, the regenerated<br />
waterfront at Civitanova Marche will have<br />
open public spaces.<br />
all of this and there will be various<br />
conferences and themed meetings<br />
that will define how much will be<br />
granted with respect to the request.<br />
Q: There are plans for fishing activities,<br />
maritime services and a fish market<br />
on the quay of the breakwater. Do<br />
you think that yachts, fishermen and<br />
fish markets can coexist?<br />
A: The project combines these<br />
elements very well. The fishermen<br />
are already located in a well-defined<br />
area that doesn’t interfere with the<br />
tourism development of the port and, at<br />
the same time, represents a resource.<br />
A port without fishing, fish and<br />
shipwrights – and without the existing<br />
beautiful seaside village – is no longer<br />
a port. The fishermen remain because<br />
they do not bother the large yachts and<br />
the large yachts, in turn, do not bother<br />
them. This is why we deliberately left<br />
them out of our concession application.<br />
Every morning when I pass the port<br />
and see the fishing boats moored up<br />
is a beautiful morning.<br />
Q: What are the project timings and what<br />
do you need to do to get started?<br />
A: This is an administrative procedure<br />
that has clear timelines but, of<br />
course, all depends on the public<br />
administrator. The procedure can be<br />
completed within a year and a half<br />
or maximum of two years. It’s not up<br />
to us, but it could be even faster and<br />
take us less than 15 months.<br />
Q: Can we say that Civitanova Marche is<br />
preparing for a turning point?<br />
A: Yes. Our proposal aims to bring<br />
change to the city in coming decades.<br />
Q: Am I right to think it’s a bit like<br />
Marseille?<br />
A: Yes. It is even positioned in one of<br />
those near-unique situations in which<br />
a seaside village sits inside a port.<br />
You can imagine what a spectacle it<br />
will be when it is completed.<br />
