(Azienda Territoriale per l’Edilizia Residenziale) of the L’Aquila province is an economic public body with organizational, administrative and accounting autonomy, established after the transformation of the Abruzzo I.A.C.P. in companies, implemented with the Regional Law number 44 of 1999 containing rules for the reorganization of public residential housing bodies. The transformation of the public residential housing authorities wanted to foster the management of the new companies towards the principles of efficiency, effectiveness, and economy, combining and trying to achieve a proper balance between economic and ethical social values. The law for the reorganization of public housing in Abruzzo is the result of the process of administrative decentralization, which began in the mid-90s with the law number 59 of 1997 (Bassanini one) that, redefining the administrative system of competences between the Central State, the Regions and the other Local Authorities according to the principle of subsidiarity, identified in the unit territorially and functionally closer to the citizens the most suitable public subject to exercise a specific administrative function. Article 9 of the Regional Law, reported below, has defined the activities that each ATER must exercise within its territorial competence, in this case coinciding with the territory of the Province of L’Aquila.
The activities that each ATER can exercise are as follows: a. implement interventions of recovery referred to in art. 31 of Law 5 August 1978, n. 457, the assets under management and on behalf of other institutions and private entities; b. manage the assets owned by the transformed IACP transferred to them, as well as that of public bodies, territorial and not, entrusted to their management; c. promote at the Municipalities of the area of competence an information point at the service of users; d. promote and coordinate the participation of citizens in the urban reorganization programs in the municipal territory; e. carry out all the tasks that may be entrusted to it by local authorities in the preparation of urban plans, as well as the design, management and execution of public works, even for the purposes of the implementation and unitary management of the complex of publicly owned assets at the service of the residence; f. promote the access of local authorities to financial resources for housing recovery, including the activation of new financial channels that allow to optimize the use of the overall availability with respect to the specific characteristics of the programs.
The Autonomous Institutes for Popular Housing began with the first law promulgated in Italy for the construction of popular housing, Law No. 254 of May 31, 1903, which aimed to address the difficult problem of having homes for the poorer classes. The ATERs are recognized as Autonomous Provincial Institutes and operate in the provincial territory responding effectively to the demand for housing. The function performed, of high social value, has also affected the economy of the entire province through the production of goods and services and collateral activities of moderation of the amounts of rents. The process of transfer of competences in the field of ERP, from the State to the Regions, started with the DPR 616/1977 has led to the enactment of the current L.R. n.44/1999 that transforming the IACP in ATER (economic public bodies), has brough to a change in a business sense of property management and related activities to ensure greater efficiency, and make achievable the goal of economic balance, while maintaining the social function of the ERP. In the last 20-25 years, the evolution of revenues from rents established by law) has been strongly unbalanced in relation to the index of costs and the cost of living. This has ensured implicit assistance in favour of tenant families but has in fact subtracted resources from ordinary and extraordinary maintenance.
Main activities ATER Manages its own real estate assets as well as those of other entities entrusted to its management. It implements subsidized and subsidized residential building interventions through the purchase, construction and renovation of housing and related buildings, including through integrated programs and urban renewal. It designs integrated programs and urban renewal programs and/or carries out building works on behalf of public bodies. Heritage There are still many problems, especially regarding the management of housing: a building heritage owned by the ATER, consisting mainly of old buildings, which requires immediate and frequent interventions of ordinary and extraordinary maintenance. This heritage represents a heterogeneous sample of construction techniques, types and materials used. The state of preservation suffers from many factors, such as old age, I ‘aggressiveness of atmospheric agents and mainly I’ insufficient maintenance, determined by the lack of regional funding, gradually decreased over the years and in particular following the end of the former GESCAL contributions. With the passing of the years, therefore, the impossibility of carrying out programs of extraordinary conservative maintenance of the buildings, has made it necessary to monitor more and more accurately the state of maintenance of the heritage in order to be able to predict, as far as possible, the onset of dangers caused by the deterioration of the external parts of the buildings, as well as to be able to plan periodic maintenance informing the Region of the most urgent needs and requesting appropriate funding. The building heritage owned by ATER Pescara consists of 672 buildings.
