The cultural venue faces closure following the owner's retirement. While ERC and Junts parties supported the acquisition in La Seu d'Urgell, the governing team voted against it to protect other planned investments.
“"We must work on it seriously, slowly and without pressure, to find solutions without compromising all investments."
The purchase price is set at 3 million euros, with an additional 3 million needed for renovations. Mayor Joan Barrera emphasized that the priority remains the construction of a new theater auditorium in the Horta del Valira area.
Opposition leaders argued for the cinema's social importance, while the CUP party abstained from the vote, calling for more transparency in the ongoing negotiations with the private owners.
