When a person, family, or a legal entity (corporations, foundations, and others) decided to settle in a locality rigging requirements utilities for their performance, such as water, electricity, public lighting, urban and household, among others.
That means in the legitimate exercise of having quality of life at optimal levels, but even with the best urban planning using knowledge from leading experts, we remain without the possibility that there occurs a situation of public calamity .
For this, governments have established organizations (agency or entity) called to address these problems, because it alters the standard of living they aspire or enjoy where we decided to settle, for reasons work, studies, among others.
The municipal area is no exception, since it is the first of which receives the damage by earthquakes, river flooding, drought, rain, fire, pollution, accidents, explosions, among others.
regard in Venezuela is the National System of Civil Protection and Disaster Management, as well as Fire Corps, which are responsible for the actions to events of this nature. He is a national body of the executive branch, while they do not.
However, legislation ha previsto que tenga ramificaciones en los estados y municipios, lo cual permite hacer frente a lo que se presente, por cuanto este tema se relaciona estrechamente con otros propios de Derecho Constitucional o Administrativo, tal es el caso de la Emergencia y Estados de Excepción o de Alarma, producto de perturbaciones por distintos orígenes, no necesariamente políticos.
Existen antecedentes históricos acerca de esta materia. Los más recientes nos llevan al servicio de la Defensa Civil orientado hacia la “acción contra desastres”, como se le recuerda. Con el cambio constitucional en el año 1999 se modifica el criterio y es sustituido por la estructura actual que conocemos, enmarcado as a public security organ, not a police force of public policy, but interacts with these at the time to take action to address these public calamities, the product of nature or human activity.
municipal Civil Protection and Disaster Management is linked with regard to the Land Registry, Municipal Engineering, Municipal Police, the urban cleaning service and home, taxation, budgeting, among others, are elements that play a leading role in addressing the dire event.
is why it is increasingly necessary municipalities create structures that allow the attention of life-changing situations in society, either for natural reasons (hurricanes, rain, etc.) and by human activity (fire, pollution, etc.), where prevention plays a predominant role because it also saves valuable human and material resources that can be used - in normal circumstances - by the municipality to other activities or programs that require attention, such as public ornament, culture and sports, among others.
Given the reality of each municipality is understandable that investment in civil protection and management disaster can be highly costly, but more expensive is the price you pay off the loss of life and property-oriented production. This is not a fashion, only with climate change is already a sufficient reason to think about considering.
reader is suggested to take a look at other articles that I wrote called "Municipal and Public Services", "From municipal powers," "City and Environment", "Municipality and police service," "City and Urban "," municipality, waste and solid waste, "" City and water service, among others, which are published on the Google Blog or www.tecnoiuris.com eduardolarasalazarabogado.blogspot.com (Podium Law Municipal Law or Community Law Group Municipal Venezuela).
