The controversy surrounding the San Benedetto Market in Cagliari continues, as it is preparing for a profound (and feared by many) restyling . On the revolution of the structure comes the controversy of the mayoral candidate Giuseppe Farris who points the finger at Truzzu. «The sad impression – he explains in a note – now widespread in the city, is that he is preparing the cemetery for all the traders and street vendors in the market». And he does not hesitate to define the move of the 180 box holders, expected in two months to the temporary headquarters in Piazzetta Amedeo Nazzari, as "a deportation". There «work is progressing quickly. According to Mayor Paolo Truzzu – explains Farris – creator of the questionable initiative, they should be completed by early February for a total cost of more than 5 million euros. The move, therefore, is virtually a done deal, except that of the more than 200 street vendors based around the old structure . At Palazzo Civico it was decided to move them to Via Cao di San Marco , where they could hardly stay. Unless Truzzu decides to eliminate all the parking in the area, an operation which is very congenial to him, but which would entail further tears and blood for the general road system. Everything is shrouded in the embarrassing silence of the majority and opposition. Of the mayor in office, Paolo Truzzu (Brothers of Italy) and his predecessor, Massimo Zedda (Progressives), who would aspire to regain the mayor's seat."

«Both Truzzu and Zedda – continues the candidate – pretend to ignore having failed to keep their word to the Region , to the Lyric Theater Foundation and to the Music Conservatory when, representing the Municipality and the Metropolitan City, they promoted and approved the Convention of August 2017 which financed the Music Park , commissioning the Municipality of Cagliari to build a 320-seat theater and a car park, at its service in Piazzetta Nazzari , as well as various other infrastructures so that in Cagliari capable shows of international importance could also be produced to attract cultural tourism flows to Sardinia. Faced with this painful operation not only for market workers, but for the entire city, we ask ourselves two questions. Why didn't Mayor Truzzu bring these substantial and unilateral changes to the program agreement to a joint table between the Sardinia Region and the Teatro Lirico Foundation to verify their consensus? What are the reasons that led Mayor Truzzu to start such a revolutionary and "painful" project without sharing it either with the actors involved or with the citizens?".

«The current mayor would do well to worry about the possible implications of this operation which wastes 2 and a half million euros for the new theater and other infrastructures of the Music Park. Appropriations that are earmarked. Ultimately, we are, as usual, faced with an operation characterized by improvisation and opacity, which contributes to confirming the low management level of the current municipal council", concludes Farris.
