Reporter in the Council Chamber of the day 8 May 2013 Dr. Roberto Michele Palmieri and hearings for the parts the defenders Ernesto Sticchi Damiani, Giovanni Pedone, Luciano Canepa, Roberto Righi, Marcella Palmieri;


The chronology of the events turns out to be the following one:

a) in date 19.5.1998 state property concession between Harbour Authority (AP) of Taranto and the TCT is taken part s.p.a, having lasted of years 60, which previewed, which prescription, the TCT engagement s.p.a. “… to accept all the obligations of the action of concession to protection of the activities currently carried out on the Polisettoriale Pier, limitedly to destined necessary the operating zones of which to the third phase… to handling and storage of goods and bulk currently enlivened on the same polisettoriale pier” (cfr. p. 6);

b) in next way, and mainly with licence n. 20/98 of the 27.8.1998, are taken part today's state property concession in favour of the recurrent one.

The subdivision of the harbour area between recurrent and the TCT s.p.a then is confirmed by the agreement 16.5.2001, which it seems to be able itself to attribute nature of procedimentale agreement, former art. 11 l. n. 241/90, having the administration asserted of “from (king) action than precede”, in such a way confirming the part of the agreement in which it is proceeded to the subdivision of the harbour area between the recurrent consortium and TCT s.p.a.

Such being the chronology of the events, finds the College that the relative order of interests is modified by deliberation AP 11.2.2013, which has denied to the recurrent consortium the availability of the area consented until from 1998.

Orbene, such new provision does not express the reasons of public interest that have induced the administration to change to the precedence divisamento, neither has previewed the corresponsione, in favour of the recurrent one, of the previewed indemnification former art. 21 quinquies l. n. 241/90.

For such reasons, the subsistence of the fumus must be considered of fondatezza of the resource, not having the administration in some esternato way the supervened legitimizing reasons of public interest failing of the attribution of the area to the availability of the recurrent consortium.

- Deduction also the subsistence of the periculum, inborn in the obvious consequent detrimental consequences to the necessity of immediate liberation of the area;

- considered to fix public audience for the 23.10.2013;

- considered at last to compensate the expenses of the precautionary phase;

P.Q.M.

The Regional administrative court for the C#lecce Apulia, Section Before,

it receives the question of precautionary protection, and for the effect:

a) it suspends the effectiveness of the appealled actions;

b) fixed for the discourse of merit of the resource the public audience of the 23.10.2013.

It compensates the expenses of anticipates precautionary phase.

Decree anticipates will be executed by the Administration and is deposited near the secretariat of the court who provvederà to giving of communication to the parts.

So decided in C#lecce in the Council Chamber of the day 8 May 2013 with the participation of the magistrates:
